Merry Christmas to Me!
Mary Valle: All I really want for Christmas is to watch "The Exorcist" with Fr. Gabriele Amorth. I also want to thank him profusely for pointing out a few things that actually are kind of true. Who hasn't been in a yoga class and "breathing" into some pose and thought "This shit is EVIL!" I know I sure have. Yoga is great, don't get me wrong. But come on. It's kinda evil. Who expected us to get into stretch-jersey bellbottoms and point our asses skyward in public en masse, before our current era? Excuse me, the current year of Our Lord? Yoga is optional, you might say. Is it, now. Is it really? Uh-huh. Didn't think so. "Try doing it in a cassock!" said Fr. Amorth, in an interview I didn't have with him. "That **** is *****." And Harry Potter! As someone who has listened to the entire series and is now making her way through the movies with a younger associate, it's kinda evil too. Not Harry, of course. But Voldemort and all his friends and associates. Evil as they come, Fr. Armorth. In fact, Valdemort is so evil a lot of the characters won't even say his name. Take that, Satan/Lucifer/Beezebub/etc.! Where do you stand on Twilight, sir? I think you might find it is also....evil, if you don't like magical powers or supernatural creatures or immortal stalkers who prey on teenage girls. Oh wait.
