Today's Relgious Question

Antigua Guatemala, Thursday, 14 June, 1979:



"What's going on here?" I asked a local.
"It's Corpus Christi"
We watch the giants dance to marimba music for a while.


"So, Why are there dancing giants?" I asked.
"Because it's Corpus Christi, of course." the local told me. "Don't they have Christians where you come from?"

....

I have to admit, I'm still in heathen ingnorance about that. The Catholic Encyclopedia Feast of Corpus Christi article doesn't shed any light on the dancing giants issue. Perhaps one of my Christian readers can enlighten me?

Sorry, video game references (post Q*Bert era anyhow) are generally at least as obscure to me as Midaeval Spanish Catholicism.

Yes, I'm the lost prophet of Kiboloby who doesn't know squat about video games (and also doesn't much care for bacon).
