2. We will get there, eventually.

I hear more and more parishioners talking about it, and many no longer feel it's right to take the stance we've been handed. It's just the rightwing branch who makes the most noise and are still setting the standard, which is why I think it's important that progressives attend services and involve themselves in the church of their choosing. The rightwing became so powerful because we allowed it by abandoning the church.

Maybe it will all change someday. I hope that someday is soon.
