Should I be ashamed for the fact I actually think that SP episode was funny? Not the best one, obviously, but still good.

That's a précis of every sermon I've heard from a Unitarian pulpit!  (Well, all except for "I've just been sick in my mouth," which I heard only from the congregation . . . .)

As a child I went sometimes to the local United Church. I like to say this is their prayer :
"Dear God, if there is a god, hear my prayer, if you listen to prayer."

Pablo Picasso is in strange company there.

On the contrary - he would have been delighted  :D :D :D. His sexual appetite was immens ( albeit not always very "elegant").

The early (ca 1900) portraits are very strong!



And he was good looking
