Variations on a Phrase by Christ
by Roque Dalton
"Render unto God that which is God's
and to Caesar that which is Caesar's."
I
Render unto God that which is God's
and to the fascist government of President Molina
that which the fascist government of President Molina

the fascist government of President Molina.
II
Give unto God that which is God's

It gives me great pleasure to introduce Dario Fo (1926-), an Italian radical leftist playwright, and the best playwright I have ever read by far. Although you may be wary of political theater, or as Fo put it "Political theater has become a kind of byword for boring theater, conceited theater, pedantic theater, mechanical theater, a non-enjoyable theater," Dario Fo's plays are one of a kind. What do I mean by that?
