The example is probably much more truthful than the original for most Christians. Some congregational songs I have to skip a line or so on, because the words simply are not true. Like the hymn that says, "I'll praise the Lord every moment 'til life is over...." Nobody does that. Let's be truthful in our words.

I realize that, but the implications are real, even if actual hymn books are not published this way, the rest of the "package" is being dumbed down for consumers. When denominations are ordaining homosexuals, what more needs to be said? It is a sad commentary on "the church" in the West.

That is why I thought it was humorous. It hits close to home. I agree it is sad that it does hit so close to home. Sometimes a little humor can get our attention when screaming and yelling seems to be ignored.

it is funny. i realize, the Catholic Church is “the big target” in politics, but,
i’m surprised, no reference to hillary’s actual plans to be a Methodist minister, :-|

or, her book of devotionals, pulled due to plagiarism. :-|

so much material to draw upon, there.

these times clarify the wisdom of former presidents, and failed presidential candidates, to accept election results, and, carry on along that proven path. show some self-respect.
