Newsflash: Episcopal Clergyman Says Something Liberal


Episcopal dean of the National Cathedral teaming up with Democrats on guns

Judging from the dean's "invocation" at the gun control presentation at the Senate, one cannot be a true Christian or, particularly, an Episcopalian if one belongs to the "gun lobby" or owns a rifle.  Hypothetically, what does that make an Episcopal priest who owns a rifle and belongs to the NRA?  I'm given the understanding by his comments that the dean does not think such creatures exist.  Is that priest no longer be a member of the ordained "club"?  Would he/she be judged as somehow disharmonious and worthy of shunning or shaming?  Groupthink is alive and well in both academy and church, apparently.
