Andrew Sullivan didn't like Obama's choice of Rick Warren to do the Inaugural Invocation. I think there were loads of people--gay and straight--who were dismayed by the choice.
But I think that's knee-jerk, and deeper thought on this decision could yield some interesting insights on the discomfort of change, the deeper thought required to institute it, and the trust we must have for the man who we just voted into the highest office in the land.
As he says, "I fear that in responding too viscerally to the Warren choice, we may be throwing something very valuable away far too prematurely."
Sullivan reflects at length on this topic in a most profound entry to his blog.
