KISS

The Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day
Saints deserved credit for having the courage and kindness
to offer a predominately gay church use of its sanctuary.
The Metropolitian Community Church, which does not have
a permanent home, has been meeting in a community
theater after being denied regular use of the Christ Chapel
on the Boise State University campus.

The RLDS church's decision didn't come easy.  But, as
RLDS Branch President Paul Davis said, this is a "statement
of love and caring and hospitality for a group whose lives are
being made more difficult."  It's also a noble example from
which all churches can learn.
