Did kind of a Martin Luther-esque thing tonight

[47of74]

While I was traveling I got a letter over the weekend from one of the local far right priests in response to my letter about how I was no longer a Republican or Catholic and that women had a right to chose. This guy writes charming stuff like this;

Bishop Doran, while bishop of the Diocese of Rockford, wrote that there is a political party that exercises seven "unholy sacraments."

These concern: Abortion, homosexuality, contraception, divorce, radical feminism, genetic experimentation and genetic mutilation. These can be called the "sacraments" of our secular culture.

I got home from my trip today and the letter from the above priest was waiting for me. So I did a Martin Luther-esque thing tonight. I took the letter - unopened - outside and stuck it in a coffee can. Once it was in the coffee can I took the lighter I was holding and burned the letter. Made me feel good too.

1. If you get another letter from that priest, nail it to his church door.

Luther nailed his 95 theses to the Wittenburg church door on October 31 - it would be so appropriate to observe the anniversary of that event...

3. Well, that might be cause for a charge of vandalism

Some of that adhesive tack stuff might be a better option.

Still a good idea, though.

2. Well, nailing it to his church with each of those points challenged

would have been Marin Luther-esque.

What you did was merely good sense.
