[Magdalen] What is your church doing about Trump?

[James Oppenheimer-Crawford]

I think the response of our Bishop, Andie Dietsche, was very good.  He

precludes certain behaviors, demands certain behaviors, and a lot of this
is not subject to debate.

There's an upside to everything. Those of us who missed out on the sixties
will get to go to jail.
