Thus further distancing themselves from God and the one true church. Sad but not that surprising, I guess.

I am sure that Sodom had such houses of worship.

Suggest that "National Cathedral" be kept in quotes. :roll:

Joe,

Why? It's the National Cathedral. Non-denominational, but IIRC, the Episcopal Church runs it? Why shouldn't we expect the Episcopalians to use their rules, such as they are?

It is NOT the National Shrine, which is purposely not a cathedral. As I've said before, as a cathedral it would be the see of a bishop, but as the National Shrine, it belongs to all American Catholics.

Have we forgotten? Our "leader" has told us and the world: ‘We are no longer a Christian nation’

President Obama claims to speak for me and many of his supposed 'we'. In my opinion, he speaks clearly for himself and the 'we' he cloaks himself with is but theater wardrobe employed in a divisive many slogan titled tale.

One place my father worked the foreman was accustomed to saying "We will do this." or "We will do that." At some point the union steward would interrupt to ask: "Do you have a mouse in your pocket? Who is this 'we' that you are talking about?"
