Ecumenism...

[jay]

Even of the inadvertent sort... my Episcopal church had a table with a bunch of mistletoe set out as leftovers from decoration. So I took a few twigs... one for home, of course, but also one each to hand to cyan_blue for two friends' houses where there will be holiday events over the next week. So my Christian church is effectively supplying mistletoe to two pagan Yule observances. ;-) I'm amused.

And of course mistletoe is a pagan symbol itself, so decorating a church with it is a very ecumenical thing to do.

I'm used to Grace Cathedral, so it doesn't seem odd. :)

*grin* Yay for cross-culturalism... ;-) I think I'll hang ours up near the menorah... ;-)

It is good to see that in this season of peace the Christian establishment is giving back something to the pagan rituals they co-opted in the past. :)
