Things that just don't go together

As often happens at important Masses, our choir was joined at this morning's ordinations by two trumpet players. I assume they weren't Catholic since they had brought along books to read, and retired to the back row of the choir to read them during the ordinations. It was strange to look over during the solemn and holy moment of ordination, as the bishop was calling down the Holy Spirit upon the two men to be ordained and see these men reading.

Stranger still, one of the men was reading The Da Vinci Code. I guess no one told him that it was an anti-Catholic book. Or maybe he's bought into that nice, gentle lie that it's just a good story and Catholics are being over-sensitive.
