Garrison Keillor has written a humorous, yet touching column about Christianity. He starts by lambasting some immoral Christians in the news. But then he recalls his own less worldly evangelical upbringing. And finally he writes about his current high church Anglicanism.
Best line: “I love my neighbor as myself, but only because I don’t much care for myself.”
Big finish: “For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting; and His truth endures to all generations. And wherever two Corinthians are gathered together, there he is in the midst of them.”

From Garrison Keillor: Where two Corinthians gather – Tulsa World:
Every time Bob McDonnell talks about his corruption conviction in Virginia he mentions how Jesus Christ is sticking with him all the way, which surely is true. Jesus does not dump a guy just because he is sleazy.
