Bishop Katherine Jefferts Schori Interviewed on NBC's Today Show









Does anyone really believe that if the new Episcopal Bishop were a heterosexual man intent on preserving the traditions of our faith that MSNBC would have the least interest in interviewing him?


This MCNBC interview was a love fest between host Meredith Vieira and Katherine Jefferts Schori. Schori was also named Glamour Magazine's "Woman of the Year." It's easy to see why the bright lights of media stardom are seductive. But when has the gospel of Christ ever been popular among the powerful?



So a dying church busy kicking out traditionalists in the name of tolerance seeks salvation in the love of the media - hasn't it always been thus?



Why is a woman as smart as she not able to see that when a media that is racist, profane, pornographic, pro-war, and militantly secular loves her - something is wrong ?



I'm reminded of the last line of the wonderful movie "Devil's Advocate" in which Al Pacino plays the Devil.


"Vanity. Definitely my favorite sin."
