"The slope gets slippier and slippier"
Indeed it does. These "men of God" want to PLAY God.
Sure they should know better, but that they don't speaks volumes about what the CoE has become, along with their fellow hedonists in the Episcopal church in America.
Sadly, that is what the Episcopal Church has become. Disgusting, isn't it?
I still worship in the Episcopal (well, actually, we dropped the Episcopal part out of our name already) church I grew up in, and we're part of a large group (led by Truro Church and The Falls Church) from Northern Virginia that will most likely break away before New Year's.
