Yeah, you're right. It's so unchristian to devote 10% of our time for
the good of humanity. Anybody proposing that has got to be
immediately suspect. And what giving that a standing ovation? That's
the most pagan thing I have heard in years. Jesus taught us to take
our talent and bury it, right? Yeah, that's the ticket.
