Fr. Seán ÓLaoire

Namaste, my brother.

Because we have projected our image of our own, our goodness and our evil onto Him.

I'm fascinated by the whole notion of projection that Carl Jung spoke about.

And it reminds me, when I was a little child going up in Ireland, for the first six years of my life, I lived with my grandparents.

And I was the first great-grandchild and the first grandchild.

And I had an uncle who was two months younger than me.

My uncle Noel.

I was born in October 1946.

He was born in December 1946.

So we were raised like twins.

And there was a movie theater in Cork City called the Lido.

And in case you think it was this luxurious place, it was like a big barn of a building with wooden forums and a whitewashed wall that they projected the movies into.

And it would be particularly on Saturday mornings, movies about cowboys and Indians or else Tarzan movies.

We loved those.

And the price for admission was two milk bottles.

Milk was delivered in bottles.

And if you brought in clean milk bottles, you got free access to the movie.

So we go down to the movie, two milk bottles, and we fill our pockets with stones.

And when the bad guy came on the screen and he's creeping up behind the good guy,

We'd say, watch out behind you, watch out, he's catching up with you.
