ps: for instance, the quotation of the protestor was something against a rabbi presiding or praying in the cathedral. As long as the rabbi did not preach against the Church, and there is NO reason to suppose that he did anything like that, none at all...........then what’s the beef? Jesus was recognized as a Jewish teacher or rabbi, as Scripture makes abundantly clear (St. Peter addressed Jesus as rabbi, Mark 9:5; Nicodemus did likewise, John 3:2, etc.), and Jesus’ entire method or style of teaching was fully consistent with the other rabbis (his methods of discourse, debate, example, parable, etc.)
We can only assume that this protestor would have make a ruckus if Jesus had appeared and participated in this Cathedral prayer or event.
Methinks the protestor should pray on it awhile.
I, for one, pray he can discover a truer faith as God has provided it for us.
To quote Benjamin Franklin, “We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.”
1. Would you feel the same way if this was a Muslim presiding at the service?
2. If it's no big deal, then why not hold the event in a synagogue and invite all the participants there?
