Episode #57. Another big chunk. The Most Terrible of all Weapons. Or… the Swedish Jesus. A Veggie Tales viking. Power in death, power over death. Barabbas means “son of the father” vs. the True Son of the True Father.

Going for the sword and power rather than God’s power; power made perfect in weakness. Propagate the mystery of the Mystery. A better deal than the Apostles got. The Eucharist and spirituality. Ritualism which cancels the grace. Bad Thing. We get to choose because our favorite choice is to choose. Hasty generalizations. Rugged individualism: okay for running an economy, not so good as a way to get to heaven! Protecting the common good: Plato, Aristotle, St. Thomas… you know, those guys. Being the body of Christ, being built into the body of Christ, by the body of Christ! “We” (not “I”) Receive the body of Christ to become the body of Christ. It’s PUNISHMENT! Or… maybe it’s healing? A book and a pair of scissors. Do we hide under a parachute, in a mysterious metaphysical way? Sacrilege. A tragedy. Jesus with skin on. Priests want to forget your confession - really! Driving to Jerome. Shutting up while one is ahead. Accidents, substances, and the close physical communion of the time immediately after receiving the Eucharist. Stunned into silence… we are, after all, Into the Deep. That’s Right, and THE END.
