I had a thought yesterday at Christmas Mass:
I think an important point of the nativity story that's overlooked by the mega church crowd is this: The story has the King of Angels picking a teenage unwed minority girl to be the most important woman in history. This girl lived in a hick town, in a backwater of the empire, belonged to a weird minority sect, and did not speak English or vote Republican. Might this mean something for us?
