A Parable

“You’re among the best at disguising unbridled cynicism.” Aw, gee, shucks, feller, thanks.

Hey, wait a minute; whatever do you mean! I just tell it like it is. All I said was “a parable is just a parable” and presumed that Anglicans were a bit smarter than the average religious guy but discovered that some of ‘em haven’t outgrown thinking like a Southern Baptist! Like the person who contacted a publisher asking if they had the Old Testament in the red letter edition. My fifteen year task was to get them into church; that’s all. The church is doing a helluva good job of running them out! (Shall I get out my bridle, Alan?)
