No, I am not going to
condemn Heather Cook for her alleged hit-and-run, at least not the run
part. When one is involved in a
very bad accident, it can be very traumatic and disorienting and lead to
immediate unwise decisions. And
she reportedly did return to the scene of the accident within 20 minutes. So I will withhold judgment, at least
for now.
But I do denounce The
Episcopal “Church” and its Diocese of Maryland for making her a “bishop” in the
first place. Why?
In September 2010, nearly four years to the day
before she'd become Maryland's first female Episcopal bishop, Cook was pulled
over in Caroline County.
Police at the time said she blew a BAC of .27, or
over three times the legal limit, when given a breathalyzer.
In her car, police said they found a bottle of
whiskey, a bottle of wine, and a marijuana pipe reported MyEasternShoreMD.com.
And four years after that,
she is made a bishop? Really?
The Episcopal “Church,”
with its enabling, shares blame for the tragic death of Tom Palermo.

To be a fully inclusive church, TEc must accept and promote not just the LGBTs but the drunk and the stoned as well.
