I agree -- unfortunately for most now, when one thinks of the word "Anglican" one sees Gene Robinson and the Rev Kathy langford ("abortion is a blessing").

The Anglican community in the 2000s has been divided into 3: the Anglo-Catholics, the reformed/pentecostal types in Africa/Asia/S.America and the pinko-led group in N.America and the UK

The Anglo-Catholics were always highly traditional and religious and will now, I believe, leave to join the Catholic Church.

The African/Asian/S. American may labor on, but they have nothing in common with the pinkos, so In MY humble OPINION, they should form their own communion.

The pinko-led is bleeding Christians to other denominations, but I believe there may be still some Christians there who cannot countenance leaving the church of their childhood.

For the anglicans who have left, I can only sympathise and also learn from them on how we can prevent this happening in other churchs. We've seen the pinko brigade attack the ECUSA, PCUSA, Methodists, now the ELCA. However, they are now out in the open and so is their agenda, so we know our enemy, which is always good.

If my diocese leaves, I will know the time has come. It’s a case of trusting those who know more than I do, and who have proven worthy of such trust. My “Godfather” is one of the clergy at our parish, actually. He sponsored me for Baptism a few years ago, and my sponsor for Confirmation is also one of the clergy there. I have close ties to them, and they have been instrumental in my... well, I’ve said all that.

I have major concerns about where to attend Mass in the future, though. I will (hopefully) be joining the Army soon, which means moving away. In turn, that means not having a reliable parish at which to attend Mass, which comes with all the expected problems. I will NOT take Communion at an ECUSA church. I will attend Mass at a Roman Catholic Church, but until I can find something that indicates it is acceptable for me to take Communion there, I won’t do it, out of respect. I really don’t know what to do.

It has become a very real problem for me.
