Then they left the gathering of gay and lesbian parishioners at St. Joan of Arc Catholic Church in south Minneapolis, a wave of confusion and anger closing in behind as the others watched them leave.

"I try not to listen to that crap," a lesbian parishioner said as she relayed the conversation to others a few moments later. She started to say something else but then, shaken, stopped.

Horrible. No one should throw stones, ever. I do commend that parish for hosting a gay and lesbian prayer group, though.
