It's that fucking time of year again.

There are billboards up everywhere advertizing a Christian Seder being held at the Von Braun Center.  Yes, let's just appropriate Jewish religion and culture and the act out the deeply sacred traditions of a religious group that has faced thousands of years of persecution at the hands of Christians, and let's do it in a building named after a Nazi!  I think profanity is an entirely appropriate response, no?

I know, and it breaks my heart. That's why the pastor and I want to actually publish a "how to" guide, free (with a donate box to a charity, we're considering human trafficking or poverty relief ones) on our seder plans, with the liturgy an abbreviated Hagaddah service, with more readings from Christian philosophers like Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Dorothy Day, and Walter Rauschenbusch, discussion of the Sermon of the Mount and an examination of the values of the seder through history.

That way, Jews can just send it to churches and say "We've shown you how to do it inoffensively."

You now have no excuse?
