44. One last thing

Dec 30

When I was in high school I attended Sunday school with my best friend. Our teacher, a very pious soul, asked the class "What would you do if the people you died on the cross for continued to sin and commit evil acts?" One young man said "I'd jump down off that cross and kill them!"

It's been decades and it still cracks me up.

Have a wonderful 2026, Faux pas.
