I was just informed that one of the local Churches has "moved beyond the 60's". They have drums and cymbals.

That's nothing. Try electric guitars and basses.

I can beat that, Desdemona...we have a "song leader" who thinks he is Elvis (or perhaps the next contestant on American Idol). You should see him gyrating up there on the altar, strummin' his geeetar. Bleeech!

And in our parish, one in which the tabernacle is placed WAAAY over to the side, BTW...they've got a "charming" little hymn announcer. It's one of those LED signs that flashes a number at you. Every time I see the darned thing, I think I'm waiting in line at the DMV. "NOW SERVING 363."

They are building a new church even as we speak, but oddly enough, the pastor refuses to show us what the inside of the church will look like. I wonder what in heaven's name they're going to do; can't be much worse than what we have now, because at the moment the current church more closely resembles the Brady's TV room (ugly paneling and all) than a house of worship. I'll make a prediction: It will be a church in the round and ugly as sin.

Regards,
