The 2nd Sunday after Pentecost

Gospel: Mark 2:23-3:6

Sacred Cow is a term that originated out of the Hindu religion, speaking to their belief that cows are sacred animals and should never be harmed. Some time in the late 1800’s, the phrase was usurped in America to point to a person or belief, or a practice “immune from question or criticism”, usually one that has been respected for a long time. Today, we commonly use the term Sacred Cow to refer to ideas, people and things that have been so deeply embedded in us or our society, that if one would suggest it ought to be changed, we would fight back.
