Inculturation

The woman with whom I did the children's liturgy of the word today "translated" this Sunday's part of the Sermon on the Plain like this:

If you help your mother because you think you're going to get a treat, what credit is that to you? Even bad kids are helpful when they think they're going to get something.

Faithful, or even just thoughtful criticisms are always welcome. Uninformed rudeness to other posters or to the Lord and His Church is not.

I also reserve the right to reject comments promoting things like private revelations and fringe points of view, if it seems to me like they are being presented in a misleading way.

If you raise a disagreement with something I say but I do not respond, please do not feel slighted or insulted, or imagine that this automatically means I disagree or agree with you. It's just that I don't find the comment box to be a constructive medium for certain forms of debate.
