High church isn't the right term. Schwaermerei is more like it. And this is from one that used to love anything Fr. Fenton said. That was before he started to cross the Bosporous.
FWIW, his successor at Zion Detroit will be installed this Sunday. I've heard he's the man for the job.

Hi Brian,

Schwaermerei! Now I've never been called Schwaermerei. Well, I guess there's always a first. :)
