In a way, we should thank "bishop" Ingham. If it wasn't for him, gay Gene Robinson would never have happened, IMO. The liberals of the ECUSA bishops felt they finally had enough control over the Communion when no discipline was given to Ingham.
If they hadn't brought this issue to a head, the less committed orthodox would have played get-along-go-along some more and been dialog'd to death.
The more orthodox Christians in America have been in their enclaves long enough. We either fight the battles head on or lose through attrition.

Tom Sullivan, the conservative radio talkshow host out of Sacramento and sometimes substitute for Rush, recently discussed this part of the decision omitted by the left wing mediots.
The vile Gay Agenda pushers like the POS Bishop Ingram, were stopped by the Canadian Supreme Court from forcing ministers in Canada to officiate at gay weddings.
The AP and other lying spinners for the Gay Agenda in their articles omitted this big reality.

VANCOUVER, December 13, 2004 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The controversial Canadian Anglican Bishop who bears partial responsibility for the ruckus in the Anglican Communion worldwide for his blessing of homosexual unions within his New Westminster diocese, has said he is worried about the Supreme Court opinion on homosexual 'marriage'. Bishop Michael Ingham is concerned about the section of the Court decision which specifies that religious officials in Canada cannot be forced by the state to perform homosexual 'marriages'.
Bishop Ingham told the media: "It means that if you're a non-believer, you can't discriminate against gay and lesbians, but if you're a believer you can. So if you want to discriminate against gays and lesbian people, join a religious organization."
Jim Hughes, National President of Campaign Life Coalition told LifeSiteNews.com that Bishop Ingham's remarks were indicative of the New Age morality being imposed in Canada. "God-given morality and nature itself tells us that sexual relations are intended between a man and a woman in a loving, committed and monogamous union. However, the New Age morality which is being imposed in Canada has turned normal morality on its head. Good is called evil and evil good. Bishop Ingham's comments appear to be those of a bishop of this New Age morality," said Hughes.

Thanks for the ping, and what it is with Bishop Ingham? His focus is on 'homosexual rights' entirely, and damn those that still believe in the faith once imparted to them!
He's drawing a pay check with huge benefits as a supposedly Christian bishop, while denying the very faith that brought him there.

The language and phrasing used by these apostatic individuals reminds me very strongly of something I read in Malachi Martin's
Hostage To The Devil. He studies the case of a priest who is possessed and the subsequent exorcism. I think it must be the linguistic attempts to make the outrageous seem reasonable that make me recall Martin's work. One wonders whether these are actually evil people or whether they are under the influence of evil entities.
Martin's book is worth reading. He exmines in detail the question of whether the possessed are actually at fault.

Homosexual Agenda ping.
With a link to a related article, a good guy.
Do it yourself commentary. Proof that being called "Bishop" and wearing religious garb have zero to do with knowing or serving God. "Wolves in sheeps' clothing" is the phrase that comes to mind.
Let me know if anyone wants on/off this pinglist.

Generally evil "entities" get ahold of those who are of that persuation - meaning either already prone to evil, or just ready to surrender their will mindlessly. Taking drugs will often put a person in a ripe condition for that sort of thing.

Generally evil "entities" get ahold of those who are of that persuation...That's what Malachi Martin decides in his book as well. He says that those who become possessed of evil consciously make the choice to accept evil at some point, even if they regret and/or repent later. It makes sense to me.

There's no discrimination going on here... ONE CANNOT DISCRIMINATE AGAINST FREE CHOICE!!!
Just an all out war by the freak activists, including this blasphemous hypocritical sicko whose agenda is to FORCE you and I in to acceptance of an aberrant, twisted, sickening, vile behavioral choice!
This Pig should be more worried about ever stepping foot inside the borders of the U.S. where his sickness is not tolerated and is irreverent mockery of God is recognizable even to fools!

One wonders whether these are actually evil people or whether they are under the influence of evil entities. I often wonder the same thing when I see the actions of many who work to undermine our society, and see them sewing seeds that will only come to fruition in subsequent generations. One suspects that an evil intelligence with a longer term perspective and a great deal of patience is behind the actions.

Who will rid us of this meddlesome priest?
Are you suggesting that 3 barons neutralize the problem with all necessary prejudice?
