Not true. I am a conservative cradle Episcopalian who attends a very liberal parish. There are several like minded folks in the parish. We can separate the leadership’s ideology from our desire to continue worshipping in a tradition we are use to.

I know a few people like you, but his comments on Trump's tweet have exposed what side he's on.

Scalia:

Today’s decree says that my Ruler, and the Ruler of 320 million Americans coast-to-coast, is a majority of the nine lawyers on the Supreme Court.
and again Scalia:
what really astounds is the hubris reflected in today’s judicial Putsch
and again Scalia:
The opinion is couched in a style that is as pretentious as its content is egotistic.
and again Scalia:
Hubris is sometimes defined as o’erweening pride; and pride, we know, goeth before a fall. The Judiciary is the “least dangerous” of the federal branches because it has “neither Force nor Will, but merely judgment; and must ultimately depend upon the aid of the executive arm” and the States, “even for the efficacy of its judgments.” With each decision of ours that takes from the People a question properly left to them—with each decision that is unabashedly based not on law, but on the “reasoned judgment” of a bare majority of this Court—we move one step closer to being reminded of our impotence.
But at the slightest criticism by the President of the United States, this guy feels "disheartened".

I thought I could do that too, at one time. But then I thought about what I was giving my money to, and walked away. Anglican churches are around if you look for them.

Why would one want to support such evil? What they are preaching and teaching is completely contrary to Scripture. I can only imagine what horrible things the children are taught.

Why go to a church where you disagree with the leadership? Just a social gathering?
