Lead line:

"Gary Hall, dean of the National Cathedral in Washington, DC, is quickly turning the place for the nation's most solemn occasions into Flip Wilson's Church of What's Happening Now."

We now a country lead by petulant children.

The decadent Henry VIII, founder of the Episcopal church would smile and approve of this strange priest’s plan to turn this Episcopal church into a dance hall where “youths clad in bikinis rave to loud music”.

Leftwing ideology is all about the destruction of Christianity. It’s a shame when Christian clergy join in and help that effort.

He’s also the guy who announced that gay marriages would be performed in the National Cathedral. On television that evening, he said “My emails are in favor of it!” Now that’s a scientific survey of Christian believers right there. /sarc

Gary is just continuing the ECUSA dedication to being “trendier than thou.”

Of course, that’s why they have lost millions of communicants and endowments are not keeping up with expenses. Nothing like driving away the faithful with faithlessness.

Hoo boy! Talk about being lost in the wilderness.

Why don't they try something really novel like preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ and honoring Him? That would probably do wonders for their attendance.

They could even legitimately call themselves a "church" and drop the pretense.

**Episcopal Church-run National Cathedral in Northwest Washington, DC**

All the further I had to read. I believe the pictures of Clintoon coming out charring his Bible were taken here.

Agree, fwdude. I’m Catholic, but am very sad to see what this congregation is becoming under the present leadership. In the past the Washtington Cathedral always had grace and dignity. I’d visited a few times before, and had been impressed how well they carry off important “national services” like the interfaith service after 9/11 and Reagan’s funeral. It’s starting to become absolutely unbearable to look and see what’s happening.
