An Un godly mediation

Father O’Riely and father O’Brien

 

Father O’Brien!?

Yes father O’Riely?

I met a Buddhist monk the other day and he said I should learn how to meditate.

We’ll have none of that in this house Father O’Riely!

Why father O’Brien!?

Cause if people start meditating, they won’t have any need to come to church. And we won’t have any need to build lavish churches, why should we if they could just stay at home and ‘meditate!?’

Now meditate on that fact, father O’Riely!
