My only question, is how far off the rails does the Anglican Church have to get until he realizes he has to leave? A good childhood friend tried to go to an ELCA seminary, only to discover they were no longer teaching Christianity, but a form of Manichism.

Yet he stays in the ELCA because that is what he is comfortable with. They have abortion as part of the health plan, but he is comfortable. He says he can't be LCMS because of some slight a pastor once did to a distant family member (of which he doesn't see why it was done that way), but he remains in a church that has little problem with infanticide and sodomy.

Christ doesn't call us to be comfortable. Christ didn't die on the cross for us to be comfortable and at peace with the world. I can understand the difficulty of admitting that the communion you grew up in or joined has left Christianity, but if you are a Christian you have realize that at some point, you can't remain in communion with those who no longer believe in Christ.

At one point, you have to be grown up enough to realize that you are putting your soul in danger that way.

The homos want us to leave...to leave the property and monies to them.

Last year I left the ELCA for the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod. I wasn't the first and I won't be the last. The "progressives" have control of the ELCA, but I suspect that more than just individuals will be voting with their feet. I believe that before long, we will see entire congregations voting with their feet. I hope to see that movement in 2007.

Regarding Barth: as great a theologian he was, he had no church home. He was an anomaly.
