Not a bad suggestion! Makes me chuckle. I do try to avoid offensive references to the Pharisees though, even though it's part of our culture. The reason is that all rabbinic Jews are descended from the Pharisee sect that was popular during Jesus's time. I don't make a big deal about it, because I don't expect people to know the ancient history of anti-semitism, but dissing Pharisees played quite a big role.

It's an interesting subject to read about if you're curious.
