#1 This story was in the Seattle Times a while back...Rantburgers already did a meritorious job of working out on this PC, po-mo, oh-so-progressive nutjob. I just wish I'd been the one who came up with "I'm a floor wax and a dessert topping"!

#3 "I have been, by my own estimation, a better teacher, a better preacher and a better Christian."

Which tells us all we need to know about her powers of "estimation".

#4 Bet you had no idea she is also a microbiologist and victim of chemical contamination.....

The Rev. Ann Holmes Redding sees this chemical contamination as a corruption of the sanctity of life. As an Episcopal priest and New Testament scholar, Ann believes our bodies are a gift from God and that we have a responsibility to care for them. But for nearly her entire life, Anns body has been home to unwelcome chemical imposters like DDT and PCBs. Her Pollution in People study results showed that she has 8.7 ppb DDT, a level high enough to put her in the top 25% of people nationwide. She also carries 1.5 ppb PCBs, again at the high end of national exposures.

#5 Islam is a predatory cult; any tolerance expressed by them is taqiyah. There isn't a single non oppressed minority in any Muslim majority state. And the persecution didn't start with 9-11.

Hey, its 7-7-7. I wonder if the carpet boys will give us something to remember the date?

#7 What's interesting here is that the suspension didn't come from the Washington state bishop, in whose diocese she was operating, but from the female bishop to whom she was officially responsible.

That bishop, Geralyn Wolf is a convert from Judaism. Her conservative (Orthodox?) Jewish family totally disowned her when she was baptized, sat shiva as if she were dead. She has some personal appreciation for what conversion means - or doesn't mean.

Besoeker, doesn't this make her a WMD. What if one of her mosque mates strapped a suicide vest to her and put her in the space needle. The fallout would be widespread and would probably wipe out a nation of ants and frogs.

#12 This "reverend" may be many things, and I'm not passing judgment on any of them, except one. She is not now, nor has she ever been, a Christian.
