St. Paul cathedral exorcism investigated as gay hate crime

Police are investigating what amounts to an informal exorcism at the Cathedral of St. Paul as a possible hate crime against homosexuals. Authorities say the ritualistic sprinkling of blessed oil and salt around the church and in donation boxes will have clean-up costs in the thousands. Words were previously exchanged between members of the Rainbow Sash Alliance and Catholics Against Sacrilege over whether or not gays and lesbians can participate in communion.
