My father used to frighten me by telling me the Priest could change me into a Billy Goat.

You mean he didn't?

I know he was only an uneducated Newfie but I'm certain he thought it was the Priest who changed the bread and wine into the flesh and blood of Jesus.

I'd waffle a tad on that.

I'm afraid you have a big job on your hands educating 100's of millions of "uneducated" Catholics, including Priests.

Agreed. I've got several of them in diocese on the run who don't really like to talk to me during diocesan meetings. There is one who teaches at the local Catholic University and wears Converse sneakers, and is as liberal as a barrel full of Congress.

Maybe in slow motion he changed me into an Old Goat.

Well, I don't believe he had ever heard of the Holy Spirit unless it came in a bottle of Jack Daniels.
