Meanwhile, in Arlington, where altar girls need not apply...

I was off Monday. I could have joined a few of my friends for a bit of trouble-making in front of the chancery building, but decided not to. Both the Post and the Times covered the historic event. (Check out the picture at the Post. Jane Elliot looks like she's having the time of her life. "Bishop, what would your mother say...?")

Then again, Father Tucker of Dappled Things makes a number of points which, for all their merit, are what I would expect from a priest being loyal to his bishop. And yet, what is lost in the fracas of whether or not Father Haley should have or should not have done anything, is the impertinent question?

When is somebody going to officially apologize to James Lambert, for his marriage being destroyed by a misbehaving priest of this diocese?

Duh...
