Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It took me way too long not to parse Pope JP as Jared Padalecki. Perhaps I need to spend less time updating my sites.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
I always think of that kind of religious fear-mongering as very American.
It's everywhere.
On the other hand, the US Episcopalian Church is currently my institutional hero for leading the way on LGBT blessings, women bishops and all that good stuff (while the archbishops in my Anglican denominational home have silly panics about such things). There is also moderate religion everywhere.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Two of my friends just got gay-married while one is in seminary to become a priest! And they even live in student family housing.
I haven't been in months, and I have Jesus issues, but I lurve my episcopal church.

“Not dead yet!”
Well, derr! What with the Papistry and all, totally satanic.
Well, and if you go all Dia de los Muertos, then it's Papist and satanic and all furrin' and shit.

That's so cool! Whereas here, I have LGBT friends seriously reconsidering their vocations to the Anglican church, whose new 'official' stance just became a Don't Ask, Don't Tell, But We Definitely Don't Approve kind of thing. Irritating.
Still, my little parish church is run by a lovely gay priest who's going to conduct the blessing at our Big Gay Wedding. The Anglican church: a big mess of contradictions, but I manage to find places to fit in there.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
Would anyone mind if I posted my 500+ word essay for the MLS program here? I have to address (1) my decision to pursue the program, (2) my expectations of the program to meet my professional goals, and (3) how I believe I will contribute to the library and information science profession. I just need some feedback on whether it sounds coherent and fulfills all three points.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I know it's just the circles I run in, but I'm always surprised when an Episcopal priest isn't gay.

I wouldn't mind, Kathy.
