Friggin awesome. Dan Vasc puts about ten times the soul and energy into his singing of anyone else I’ve seen. Super talented, and he seems to enjoy it too.

The priest will call Jesus a “spotless victim.” Spotless I agree with, but “victim” implies a harm done that was unexpected or unwanted. In the sense that he probably would have preferred to NOT have been crucified, Christ was indeed a victim. But he knew damn well what was going to happen to him, and he went through with it anyway for all of our sakes. To me, those are the actions of a HERO, not a victim. I wouldn’t consider a soldier who fell on a grenade to save his buddies’ lives a victim, and I don’t consider our Lord one either.

Also, the word “victim” has become a loaded term in our glorious modren age. I don’t like associating Christ with the same kinds of people who freak out about microaggressions.
