Interesting dilemma, well
Posted on Wed, 01 Apr 2020
Interesting dilemma, well explained. Policies will vary, but in today's circumstances it does seem safer to wear a mask, for the protection of ourselves, and others. I don't have a mask myself (yet) but it does seem sensible for many situations....

Great piece! The slightly rambling way you describe events with the unexpected final sign of the cross is very effective!

I enjoyed this and the style in which you write it. The natural debate which goes on in the hearts of modern christians when something like this happens! But maybe the congregation is just too easily pushed over?
