[Magdalen] Desecration of Episcopal Church.

[James Oppenheimer-Crawford]

I have to wonder if this was the result of some kids with some kind of
fundamentalist background.  Kids can do the most awful stuff and not
actually grasp the hurt it gives others. I noticed on another forum that a
group of churches organized a unified move addressing more liberal
Christians. I noticed that there were representatives of several "mainline"
churches, but no Episcopal Church among those who took part.  That was a
somewhat hurtful event to some, but it was certainly done without any
desecration.

Two links to this event are intriguing:
