Do you? DO YOU?

Scene: 1st Reconciliation Prep meeting, run by my mentor, Kathie. In the Church.

Kathie: "Then, right before you go to Reconciliation, we'll ask you to renew your Baptismal promises all together. [Explanation.] Would someone like to come up here and read the first part out loud for everyone to hear?

Precocious 2nd grader: Raises hand.

Kathie: Come on up.

Precocious 2nd grader: Looks at the paper; the first line is "Do you reject Satan?" Begins to read, and very confidently asks, "Do you respect Santa?"

Curtain.

this is almost as bad as Ron Burgundy's messup with the teleprompter in a 1970's news broadcast
