I am glad Sen. Danforth, an Episcopal priest is
officiating at Pres. Reagan's funeral. The Bishop
of the Nat. Cathedral is a big time liberal. He was
the Dean of the Episcopal cathedral here in San Diego
before Bishop of D.C.
I treasure the autograph I asked Reagan for when he
was first running for Gov. I worked at his compaing
headquarters here and saw him several times as Gov. and
President in person.
I just heard on CNN that the Reagan Library has said that by the time the night is over, 100,000 people will have passed by the casket.
And they have now changed the cut off time to 7:30 PDT!
I thought the pastor/priest did a wonderful job in the short service at the library. He talked about GOD, and HEAVEN, and HOPE. It got me very teary; some of the same verses were used at my grandmother's funeral and I'm sure many others. He obviously wasn't afraid to speak of GOD and true beliefs.
I hope we hear the same on Friday from the priest. I bet we will. America needs a good dose of REality Check and this just could provide it and get a lot of people thinking.
Off topic a bit, and thanks Rintense for the pictures and for the vivid images of what you would do to that guy I never heard of till tonite but already despise,
Anyway, what I was going to say is, I've been wondering about Fr. Danforth. The Church (Episcopal) has been going through quite a lot of trouble lately between conservatives and liberals. I have been Very Mad at the EC leadership for at least ten years. I wonder which side Fr. Danforth is on... I hope he is conservative.
Many of the social problems we face today had their roots in the bishops in this country who have caused all kinds of mischief by their leanings to the far left.
