by Fr. Edward Foley, Capuchin<\/em><\/p>\n

There seems to be a consensus
\nthat the homily is not an opportunity
\nfor the preacher\u2019s self-disclosure
\nor the peddling of some personal agenda.<\/p>\n

There are even particular instructions
\nfrom bishops and even popes
\nthat the ambo is not to be a bully pulpit
\nparticularly when it comes to political passions.<\/p>\n

While I generally agree with those perspectives,
\nit is also clear that preachers remain themselves
\nwhen they approach any pulpit
\nand cannot help but reveal, at least implicitly,
\ntheir social and political,
\nreligious and personal beliefs in the preaching act.<\/p>\n

The task, therefore, seems to be one of self-awareness:
\nthe preacher being aware of his or her
\nprejudices, preferences and personal bugaboos
\nand admit them when necessary.<\/p>\n

In that spirit of full disclosure
\nI have to admit that I am not a great fan of this feast
\nand find it at least perplexing if not problematic.<\/p>\n

This is not an ancient feast of the Church
\nand only came into existence in the 1920\u2019s,
\na time of troubling nationalism after World War II
\nand a period when popes were battling the Italian government
\nabout the independence of papal territories
\nand the pope\u2019s claim to be an autonomous ruler.<\/p>\n

Thus, the feast originated as a not-too-subtle jab
\nat then-existing kings, dictators, and political strongmen,
\nritualizing that they were not the final arbiters of power
\nand that their sovereignty paled
\nin comparison to that of Christ.<\/p>\n

So this feast made political sense back in the day,
\nbut what is its significance in 2021,
\nespecially in 21st century U.S. –
\na country that originated with the utter rejection monarchy?<\/p>\n

In the words of one blogger<\/a>, the idea of the kingship of Christ
\nmight have meant something in the political climate
\n90 years ago,
\nbut now it\u2019s like celebrating Christ the CEO Sunday.<\/p>\n

Last spring I was teaching an online course
\nabout preaching with the sciences.
\nOne group of students [1] was assigned Christ the King Sunday
\nand offered me some help in reassessing this feast
\nby considering the science behind our imaginations,
\nspecifically the process known as mental synthesis.<\/p>\n

According to this theory, our brain takes familiar images or ideas,
\nplaces them in dialogue with other familiar images\/ideas
\nand reassembles this combination in new ways.<\/p>\n

Thus, our brains develop a concept of a dolphin
\nby encoding various characteristics of dolphins in our brains
\nas a collection, an assembly of neurons<\/p>\n

We also have an ensemble of neurons
\nfor a concept like a pineapple
\nwith its own array of images and characteristics
\nthat together comprise a complete mental image.<\/p>\n

The theory of mental synthesis<\/a> holds
\nthat if we simultaneously activate the neuronal ensemble
\nfor both dolphin and pineapple
\nwe can perceive these two ensembles together
\nas a single image
\nand can imagine something as absurd as
\na dolphin balancing a pineapple on its nose. [3]<\/p>\n

It is this ability that allows the human brain
\nto create a seemingly endless array of novel images
\nthat we have never experienced or physical perceived:
\nfrom zebras on surfboards to tennis in space,
\nfrom Dolphins juggling pineapples to Jesus trying on kingship<\/p>\n

However, for this to make any spiritual difference in our lives
\nit is necessary for the prefrontal cortex in the brain
\nto secure a mutual and ethical alliance with faith
\nwherever that is located in our fragile being.<\/p>\n

One blogger<\/a> underscores that necessity by noting this dilemma:<\/p>\n

If we are going to celebrate a king here today at least it could be one who will wipe out all the racists and those who do violence to women and those who hurt children and everyone who is more interested in protecting the wealth of the rich than protecting the wellbeing of the poor. I want Christ to be a king who can wipe out Isis and Al Qaeda and Boko Haram and the people who cancelled [my favorite TV series]. But considering the number of bombings and shootings and hate crimes toward trans people that are daily events, then if Christ is my king he\u2019s doing a lousy job of smiting my enemies.<\/p>\n

But the problem is (she continues) that when that vengeance seeking and violent part of me calls out to have a king who would destroy my enemies I inevitably would be the one that same king would have to destroy \u2026 since God is the God of all and I too am someone\u2019s enemy. And where does that leave us?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Good question!<\/p>\n

In today\u2019s gospel, Jesus declares that his kingdom
\nis not of this world,
\nis not like those established by czars and dictators,
\npolitical power peddlers and strong men,
\nnot rooted in violence but founded in love.<\/p>\n

This kingdom requires not just an exercise in mental synthesis,
\nbut a plunge into what Walter Brueggemann called
\na prophetic imagination:<\/a>
\na political, economic, and social subversion that would value
\npeace-making instead of warmongering,
\nliberation not exploitation,
\nsacrifice rather than subjugation,
\nmercy not vengeance,
\ncare for the vulnerable instead of privileges for the powerful,
\ngenerosity instead of greed,
\nhumility rather than hubris,
\nand embrace rather than exclusion.<\/p>\n

Now subversion is ordinarily not how most of us think of Christianity
\nor even Catholicism.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re taught to be good citizens,
\nto listen to authority,
\nto follow the laws of church and country,
\nand to be good team players \u201con earth as it is in heaven.\u201d<\/p>\n

It might be surprising to learn, however,
\nthat in our origins Christians were often accused of sedition,
\nthe same charge that got Jesus killed.
\nFollowers of Jesus regularly rejected Caesar
\nas some kind of deity-emperor
\nand were regularly executed for their beliefs.<\/p>\n

A former professor Robert Wilken
\nwrote an eye-opening little book:
\nThe Christians as the Romans Saw Them\u00a0<\/em>[2]
\nin which he documents how Christians were dubbed
\nhaters of mankind,
\npeople who shirked their civic duty,
\nhad great disregard for tradition,
\nand were dismissed as a fringe organization.<\/p>\n

Now you might be asking yourself:
\nso is the crazy priest actually using the homily
\nto invite us into seditious, anarchistic, insurrectionist action?<\/p>\n

In a word \u201cno.\u201d
\nHowever, I do think Jesus Christ, especially as revealed in this feast,
\nis inviting us to the subversive side of Christianity,
\nsomething often papered over, even lost
\nas Christianity and U.S. citizenship
\nincreasingly are less perceived
\nas two distinctive ensembles of neurons
\nthat can imaginatively be brought together
\nand appear like an all too common, even banal neural fusion
\nsapped of the edginess
\nthat got our founder crucified.<\/p>\n

Years ago I had a wonderful colleague
\nwho taught with me in a doctoral program in ministry
\nwho was a huge fan of children\u2019s books.<\/p>\n

At first, I was a little taken aback by this.
\nShe was so no-nonsense, experienced, practical,
\nand sometimes scandalously honest
\nthat I thought this completely out of character.<\/p>\n

But then I came to understand what Connie instinctively knew:
\nmany children\u2019s books are quite subversive.<\/a><\/p>\n

Classics like The Red Balloon<\/em> (1956)
\nare almost forerunners of all of those John Hughes movies
\n(remember The Breakfast Club?<\/em>)
\nthat confirm that adults are often quite wrong,
\ncertainly not all-knowing,
\nand sometimes abusive.<\/p>\n

Everybody knows the 1930 classic
\nThe Little Engine that Could,<\/em>
\nbut if you read it closely
\nthe engine that breaks down in the beginning
\nand the only engines that appear compassionate
\nare both girls.
\nwhile the other engines who refuse to help –
\nthe new passenger engine,
\nthe powerful freight engine,
\nand the rusty old engine – are all male!
\nAn early manifesto for girl power?<\/p>\n

Think of how subversive is the classic
\nThe Story of Ferdinand<\/em> (1936),
\nwhich casts a strong and mighty bull
\nas a flower sniffing pacifist
\nwhose refusal to fight saves his and multiple other lives.<\/p>\n

And then there\u2019s the beloved Dr. Seuss
\nwho once admitted in an interview: \u201cI\u2019m subversive as hell!\u201d
\nWhile trying to avoid sledgehammer morals in his books,
\nhe tackled serious issues and left no doubt
\nabout his disdain for corporate greed,
\nmaterialism,
\nand authoritarianism.<\/p>\n

His Yertle the Turtle<\/em> (1950) is almost a call to revolution
\nafter turtles in a nice little pond
\nare happy and content
\nuntil their self-appointed and delusional king
\nannounces he is \u201cruler of all that I see.\u201d
\nThe problem is that he doesn\u2019t see enough
\nso he orders the turtles to pile on top of each other,
\nprogressing from a 9-turtle throne
\nto a 200-turtle throne,
\nto a 5,607-turtle throne
\nuntil Mack, a little guy at the bottom of the stack,
\nburps and topples the whole turtle stack
\nand frees all turtles from stacking oppression.<\/p>\n

In his story The Lorax,<\/em>
\nSeuss lambasts the greed of the Once-ler
\nwho chopped won every single Truffula tree,
\npolluting air and water
\nin order to keep on \u201cbiggering and biggering\u201d<\/p>\n

In the end, even the Once-ler comes to his senses,
\ntelling a little boy:
\n\u201cunless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
\nNothing is going to get better. It\u2019s not.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the spirit of Mack the turtle
\nmaybe it is time for Catholic Christians metaphorically
\nagain to burb,
\nto care a whole awful lot,
\nabout God\u2019s reign as revealed in our subversive Jesus.
\nOtherwise \u201cnothing is going to get better. It\u2019s not\u201d<\/p>\n

We pray it will, as we embrace the revolutionary vision
\nof God\u2019s shocking and loving plan
\nfor all of humanity
\nthrough Christ our Lord.<\/p>\n
