They say they know they didn't elect an altar boy. I'm now even seeing on FB right-wing high school "friends" saying that they don't care about morality. They're saying that the protestors shouldn't be there so it's their fault for being tear-gassed. They *will* weasel him out and double-down in their support of him.

Episcopalians read scripture a lot and they take their faith seriously.

I am sure that she did not want to be in that position. Even Jesus overturned the tables in the temple.

Will you seek and serve Christ in all persons, loving your neighbor as yourself?

Will strive for justice and peace among all people, and respect the dignity of every human being?
