What don't you see?

So we're all sitting at Mass - the whole school and a bunch of parishioners. The priest starts his homily asking the little kids, "When you look at someone, what do you see?" The kids aren't quite sure how to respond so he asks again a few times using different words. Eventually, one of the kids says, "God". That was such a good answer but not quite what the priest was looking for. So, he asks a young student to stand with him. "What do you see when you look at her?" The kids' hands shoot up in the air. "She's wearing a purple ribbon in her hair." "Eyes" "She's a girl." "She's wearing her uniform." The priest congratulates them on their responses and elaborates a bit. Then, he says, "What DON'T you see when you look at her?" Only one kid has his hand up this time.

"Evil."
