Just Saturday

Articles about it all over, Greg Cote has a good piece in the Miami Herald this morning about the Wells bullying report. Cote is right, Turner should be fired, yesterday. Pouncey and Jerry should follow Incognito out the door and all of them should be suspended indefinitely by the league.

And what about those who looked on? Quote from Cote: “It is the archaic locker room code of silence that let the Dolphins’ problem get to where it did. How many teammates saw and heard Incognito, Pouncey and Jerry repeatedly inflict themselves but did and said nothing? A code of conduct won’t remedy that as much as a hard look in the mirror might.” Greg Cote’s advice is good for life itself. Our commandments are love God and love neighbor, and when we do nothing while others are mistreated we seriously break our Baptismal Covenant. The best weapon against evil has always been and will always be the mirror. Word, and Glass not darkly.

Federal judge overturns Virginia gay marriage ban. Florida next? Ellen Page comes out as gay. I don’t blame her. If I were a woman I’d come out as gay too, has anyone ever noticed how repulsive men are? Especially as we age. Jiminy Christmas.

Anthony says, right on, “So, how many clergy in the CGC are beginning to dread seeing an email from the bishop these days?” Can’t doubt the bishop’s dread is worse than ours. A full moon of horrors, waiting for the next one. LHM, CHM, LHM.

No adult Sunday School tomorrow, the bishop will be with us for Confirmation and a visit, and at SS time we’re having breakfast. The usual delicious, including fruit, muffins, egg casseroles. Linda’s egg casserole is always so delicious that I’m thinking of pouring Tabasco Habanero hot sauce all over it so nobody eats it but me.

Funeral today, two o’clock in the afternoon at St. Thomas by the Sea, Laguna Beach. Be present, Lord.
