Let's see, the article says the Episcopal Church has approximately 2 million members and 7,200 churches in the U.S., the only remaining world superpower (so America matters in contemporary geopolitics). That translates out to about 278 people in every congregation.

At our church, an Evangelical outfit which is an ardent supporter of the Nation of Israel and the Jewish people as the Lord fulfills His will in their experience, we have 5000 to 6000 adults coming through every Sunday, and have been recently listed as one of the top 25 influential churches in America.

We are one of many other Israel supporting churches like this.

Within this context of cultural influence, the Israel hating Episcopalians' influence is negligible, if existent at all.

I will always be thankful to the Episcopal Church: Both as a large part of a force which I don't think America could have been founded without, and for finally helping me in discovering Orthodox Judaism.

...related information from older news. For information on Episcopal politics, see "Anglican." Such knowledge can't really be hidden from the view of interested readers, and most of it is common knowledge now. Most people in some groups feel a desire to be perceived as being superior to people in other groups.

http://www.wcc-coe.org/wcc/what/ecumenical/index-e.html
"Among those churches which are not members of the WCC, the most notable is the Roman Catholic Church (RCC). Since 1965 a Joint Working Group (JWG), co-sponsored by the WCC and the RCC, has met regularly to discuss issues of common interest and promote cooperation. The group meets annually. One of the church and ecumenical relations staff members serves as co-secretary for the JWG and helps to coordinate contact between the Council and the dicasteries of the Vatican through the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity. [And] . . . Though the Roman Catholic Church is not a member of the WCC, it is a full member of the Faith & Order Commission. The RCC also serves the team on Mission & Evangelism in a consultative capacity."

Wow I didn't realize there was such a anti-Israel / anti-Semitic slant in the Episcopal church. I knew they were soft on gays and gay marriage and soft on abortion. Now they're anti-Isreal. I guess the Episcopal church is where all the so called Demcorat "Christians" go on Sundays to feel like they REALLY are Christians. NOW I understand why most Episcopal churches are so liberal. All the Democrats are there.
