Catholic Envy
I was meditating a bit upon Lepanto, and fell into a moderate case of Catholic envy.
After all, the Catholic church has these wonderfully triumphalistic feasts such as Christ the King and Our Lady of Victory.
I’m pretty sure as Episcopalians, our corresponding feasts are of Jesus the Really Nice Rabbi and Our Lady of Perpetual Dialogue.
Now that I’m envious and depressed, I think I’ll go read The Ballad of the White Horse as an antidote (“hair of the dog”, perhaps?). At least we haven’t taken Alfred the Great off of the list of feasts yet.
