Cross Returned to Wren Chapel?

Sanctity restored? How about sanity?
It seems that the news today is that the Board of Regents at the College of William & Mary have decided to return the Cross to Wren Chapel, as a part of a display indicating the Anglican history of the College. While it's not optimal, it is in keeping with treating the site as a very important "living" museum, and so I do applaud the move. I'm not sure there were glass boxes to display things in back in the 18th century, but hey, I'll take a small victory over a bigger loss any day!

One wonders if this had anything to do with the $12 million that was withheld for President Nichol's recent action. Money speaks, and all?

Either way, my hat's off to the College for finally doing something approaching the right thing!

Thanks to Ace for the laugh: Jesus Rays, indeed!
