Signing the petition is a no brainer for those of us who are tired of episcopal pomp & all the circumstances that go with it. Of course Christ would never have behaved as this bishop has behaved.  As a returned, lapsed Catholic, still hurting from the backlash of conservatives and an eventually, shamed bishop in another diocese, I found the words to "All Are Welcome" very reassuring and the music soothing. Hearing Marty Haugen's hymn, "Shepherd Me O Lord" at a new friend's funeral touched me deeply. The only real complaint I have about the average repertoire of Catholic musical selections is that they are pitched too high even for practiced vocalists.
