Yeah, Nah

Travel the Holy Land with the Rt. Rev. Frank T. Griswold III

It's not you, Frank; it's me.  Nice country, though.

This has absolutely, positively nothing to do with Frank, but an acquaintance of mine took a tour with a senior cleric who was superior, condescending, and the very definition of "privilege", according to contemporary usage of the term.   The clerical tour host made everyone so miserable that they were reminded as to why The Episcopal Church started to diminish during the cleric's tenure.  A rerun of such a trip isn't particularly compelling.

[This arrived as an "urgent speed message" from my seminary.  They're rather breathless about it, which may explain why their fund-raising is often anemic.]
