Sash movement announced because of the "warm welcome" they had received from Cardinal Mahony, members chose not to wear their sashes during Mass at the cathedral there.

The point was never to receive the Sacrament; it's to provoke an embarrassing public incident.

Actually, I'm convinced that desecration of the sacrament is one of their primary goals.

So you saying Mahony outsmarted them?

You're right.

I happened to catch the (network) everning news tonight, (can't remember which), when they had the Rainbow-Sash crowd standing in front of a church.

They were rightfully turned away. Staged for the perfect on-camera "Kodak Moment."

I got furious when they showed a boy, around 10 years old, putting a rainbow sash around him.

I'm sorry, I'm going to say it. These witches/and other expletives will stoop lower than low to make their point.

That sounds about right, that and to appear as victims of the "big bad Church".
