Worse, it isn't a real candle at all, but a fat plastic tube with oil inside. Lack of symmetry is also more or less the norm.<BR/><BR/>This is not however always a liberal thing.

Liberals seem to be quite averse to symmetry in liturgical arrangements, an attitude arising, I suppose, from some general dislike of order and hierarchy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28321606.post-7657630826573442492008-12-18T05:51:00.000-08:002008-12-18T05:51:00.000-08:00It seems to me that there is something in front of...It seems to me that there is something in front of the altar.
