I guess this news sent our Simple Country Bishop off to the fainting couch with the vapours, as there are no new posts since Sunday. His last post was titled "Mind the Gap," about Susan Russel's sermon (Is she a bishop?) at the "inclusive opening service":
"Her theme, a phrase heard at every Tube station in London: Mind the Gap! She talked about all the gaps that separate us -- especially the gap between what we say and how we act."
Someone should remember that next the time they say they are doing nothing more than maintaining a "quiet presence." When would that be, exactly? In the time between the interviews, the speeches, the movie openings, and the photo ops?
Interesting to note that only "20-30 American Bishops" showed up at the "inclusive opening service." Out of some 100-plus American Bishops, and 600 total Bishops, at the Conference. Not exactly a plurality....
The Simple Country Bishop drinking game stats for yesterday's entry:
I: 17
We: 6
Me: 9
Mine: 1
Total count: 33
God: 3
Lord: 0
Jesus: 1

Total count: 5
P.S. Hi, Norris.
