Strauss: L'Ancienne Et La Nouvelle Foi (1873)

Everybody wants to get to heaven, but nobody wants to pay the dues. One thing I know for sure is that You Can’t Get To Heaven Wearing Tight Shoes Sunday morning in church, Hallelujah! Praise the Lord, pass the collection plate, and where did you get those awesome shoes? Ladies and gentlemen, believe me when I say, there is absolutely no place on earth from which to bear witness to some of the greatest demonstrations of pride, envy, gluttony, lust, anger, greed, back biting, deception, judgment, and even downright hating, than in church on a fine Sunday morning. But, brothers and sisters, it didn’t start there, and it is not restricted to the congregation. Well, where did it begin you ask? It actually started in the mall I tell you, in that den of iniquity called the SHOE STORE! Can I get an Amen?
