You Just Can't Make this Stuff Up

Surprisingly, the venue for the event below is not an Episcopal Church; the Jesuits have nothing to do with it either. No, this time it's the Lutherans but not surprisingly, it takes place in San Francisco. I do wonder, though, what the people responsible for entertainments like these will do when California goes bankrupt, there's no money left and they find themselves having to work for a living. What can they do and who in God's name would ever hire them?

UPDATE: One group has as a suggestion for these people. Personally, I don't think they're good enough for McDonalds.

A big h/t to Christopher Johnson at the MCJ. Be sure to read his take on it; you will not regret it.
