President Barack Obama announced Feb. 4 his intention to appoint the Rev. Mark S. Hanson, presiding bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), to the President’s Advisory Council on Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships.
The advisory council brings together religious and secular leaders, as well as scholars and experts in fields related to the work of faith-based and neighborhood organizations, to make recommendations to the government on how to improve partnerships, according to a White House news release.
It appears the Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church has been appointed as well.
Quite right, Charles. http://www.episcopalchurch.org/79425_126919_ENG_HTM.htm
Then if Mrs Schori is working for the President, (government involved in religion?) then she should be forced to resign her position as Presiding ‘Bishop.’
I think these are appropriate picks.
Is it the Bishop’s job to preach Christ crucified, or do social work?
Well, she’s sure not preaching Christ crucified!
#4, I agree entirely. Birds of a feather, so to speak.
