(ChurchLeaders) Police cited five attendees and arrested three at a church-sponsored “psalm sing” that took place in Moscow, Idaho, Wednesday in front of the city hall. Christ Church sponsored the event, and Pastor Doug Wilson defended it, calling out city leaders for what he called “high hypocrisy” in their enforcement of the city’s mask mandate.
“We have every right to protest the high hypocrisy involved in all of this,” said Wilson on his blog. “Not only so, but I believe we have a responsibility to do so. Having said that, I do want to mention that our protest was not conducted Portland style. The federal building is just a block away from city hall, and I can say that I was very proud of our people — not one of them tried to burn it down. Rather, we addressed this hypocritical and nonsensical law in a peaceful, orderly, law-abiding, and responsible way.”
