McGreevey mulling Episcopal priesthood Posted by The Star-Ledger May 02, 2007 12:08PM Categories: News
Patti Sapone/The Star-Ledger Former Gov. James E. McGreevey appears during custody proceedings in the Union County Courthouse last week.Former Gov. James E. McGreevey has started the process to become a priest in his newly adopted Episcopal faith and hopes to begin a three-year seminary program in the fall.
McGreevey, who often described himself as a devout Catholic while in public office, was officially received into the Episcopal religion on Sunday, at St. Bartholomew's Church in Manhattan, and is now part of the church's "discernment" phase that usually precedes any seminary work, said the Rev. Kevin Bean, vicar at St. Bartholomew.

Does McGreevey realize that “Episcopal” is an anagram for “Pepsi Cola”?
EPISCOPAL NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT THE SAME AS Roman Catholic. So do not go there.
The two deserve each other.
All I wanted, in the world, was to be a catholic priest. Live in a monastery, pray, serve God. I had one fuc***'... one terrible fuc***' weakness. And they defrocked me!
“Did McGreevey renounce his unnatural vice?”
Why should he do that? The Episcopal Church’s new morality is “let er rip” “Anything goes”
Maybe he’ll be ordained by the queer bishop who left his wife and family to shack up with a man.
Two peas in a pod.
The only "unnatural vice" proscribed by today's Episcopal Church is Christian faith.
One of the Bishops in the ECUSA was elected to that office after having left his wife and daughters for another man. He is now planning to wed his current male lover. So McGreevey should have a great future with the Episcopalians.
I can’t stop laughing.
I didn't know you were in the Presbyterian Church USA.

Vickie Gene Robinson. I know him. I haven’t seen him in years, but if he’s planning a “marriage”, that really doesn’t surprise me...

This is funny - really funny.
They deserve each other.
A match made in, well, the OTHER place.
Is that church he’s attending called St. Barf’s??
With any luck, this will be the last straw that drives every remaining true Christian out of the Episcopal Church and into the Catholic Church.
