Why is Occupy Chicago Bringing Religion Into the Fold?

[Lucki]

Well I never asked that question. I answered it. But alas even the religious seem to have fled occupy, like angels in hell.

Good catch, bucklaw; thanx. Don't know how I flubbed up by improperly crediting who started this thread. Have edited out the erroneous attribution now.

I expect that a lot of committees are progressing at low speed these days. Not for lack of caring, tho. We all realize that the days between, say, Thanksgiving & Martin Luther King Day are rife with Holy Days, celebrations, & commemorations in most Faiths & many cultures. People travel, families gather, communities of faith hold special events, clergy have increased responsibilities to their congregations, etc.

Plus which, some of us just plain can't brave the chilly weather & underfoot ice of the season for reasons like health or difficulty of commute. Doesn't mean we've fled OC; just means we need you to be patient with us until Spring. (I do, anyway.)
