That reminds me of an anecdote that a priest related one Sunday as part of his sermon. He said that on one occasion he presided over a 'Children's Mass,' which the little kiddies had prepared for and took some part in. Consequently, he the sermon he gave at that Mass was purposefully simple and straighforward so as to be clearly understood by the children. What surprised him was the number of ADULTS who afterwards told him it was a wonderful sermon, and how much they got out of it. Simplicity rules!
