PARISH STREET SUNDAY
NIGHT: Following the services at
the church of my choice I was
seated with my cronies in a fav-
orite of mine along the stroll,
when a good friend and brethren
of the faith grung up the sub
iect of which l am NOSE leery to
discuss. Said he brother, / wuz
at your church this morning and
| enjoyed the services just fine,
but pray tell me one thing. Why
wuz it dat everyone looked around
so when dat lady shouted during
the course of the message?'
"Ain't it a fact" said he, "dat re-
ligion is a thing what moves you
now and den?" I answered in the
affirmative. "And amt it fact
he continued, "dat most of der
members in your church almost
never utter a sound no matter
how much truth the good Rever-
end mought be expounding?" /
nodded my head. "Den," said he,
whats der trouble wild you folk
down dere?" I didn't answer be-
cause someone called the good
brother away and I relaxed mo-
mentarily and settled back to sip
contentedly on my coke. But
when the good man left ] took to
thinking. Lots of folk do go to
church with the feeling that they
are just a leetle bit better than
some of their fellow men. And
that to show openly that they
feel any religious inclinations,
would be to threaten their social
position in the community. In
other words they believe that to
say "Amen" would be downright
disaourteous and would mar the
beauty of the service.
Well, brethren, all I can say is
just keep foolini yourselves - but
know now, that you are not fool
ing anyone but yourselves.
