Sins, there's been a variation of that happening in Toronto for many many years in the Portugese community. A statue of the Virgin mary is paraded around for a few hours, with lotsa followers (many barefoot) and bills (of money) get pinned to the float. It ends up disappearing into the Cathedral.....and I guess God grabs the money!

Perfectly logical to me!

P.S. I agree with Susan that when folks use the 'P.C." term, it usually means they've run out of argument.

Cheers

Rick
