August marks what would have been Mother Teresa's 100th birthday, with commemorative masses, exhibitions and other events around the world heralding the occasion. But count the Empire State Building out of the celebrations. New York City's tallest skyscraper has declined to shine the colorful, festive lights that it reserves for special occasions in her honor, leaving some of the nun's followers feeling slighted...CNN
The Catholic League says over 40,000 people have signed a petition in favor of the lights. "I think that too many Catholics have fallen asleep at the wheel," [Bill Donohue, president of the Catholic League For Religious and Civil Rights] told CNN. "It's time for people, the rank and file to say enough is enough. I hope it's going to be nonviolent, I wouldn't encourage violence but I know there's a lot of anger."
Um... violence? Is that supposed to be some kind of warning or threat? A private enterprise declines to participate in your party, and you're going to riot in the streets? This Donohue guy sounds a little unbalanced.
