Very amusing to link Zwingli to the Sound of Music.

Would it be too disrespectful to say, 'I love the smell of burning heretics in the morning'?

I think enough time has passed. But not sure how I feel about putting Apocalypse now allusions in the same episode that contains Sound of Music references!
