I once walked out of Easter Sunday Mass and drove to the next parish when the priest started talking about the resurrection as a metaphor.

Didn’t have the nerve to clap my shoes together or shout 1 Cor 15:17 as I went, unfortunately.

A "metaphor", huh? So all twelve disciples (plus Paul) went off preaching for years, walking and sailing thousands of miles, meeting horrifying deaths for refusing to recant, for a "metaphor". Right.

Makes you wonder what they're teaching in seminary and why such priests and pastors bother to even show up.
