Reminds me of a bit of history from the 1906 SF earthquake. One of the few downtown buildings that managed not to burn was a liquor warehouse. Its survival inspired some wag to pen this little ditty: "If, as they say, God spanked this town For being much too frisky, Why did He burn His churches down And save Hotaling's Whiskey?" |

I'm curious to. I'm not finding any record of congress making any such designation (though record of politicians informally referring to it that way). Also not finding any reference at the cathedrals web site or the Protestant Episcopal Cathedral Foundation's (the organization originally chartered by Congress in 1893 to build one) to technical non-denominationalism. In fact it all seems to be very overt in its Episcopalianism and Christianiaty.
ETA: Here's the full text of the original congressional charter. |
