So we have a church which:

  1. Is now going to ordain women to the episcopacy
  2. Is wishy-washy on abortion
  3. Is wishy-washy on homosexuality
  4. And is in full communion with a church (TEC) which
    1. Has been ordaining women for a long time
    2. Ordains non-celibate homosexuals to the episcopacy
    3. Had a notorious bishop (John Shelby Spong) who practically personified the concept of "apostate"
    4. Is blatantly and without any hesitation pro-abortion
And you think folks leaving that church are moving into *greater* darkness?

On the one hand, you guys say that liberal Protestantism doesn't count as Christian and shouldn't be held against you. On the other, you often sound like you'd rather people were liberal Protestants than Catholics.

I'll ask you straight out: do you believe a faithful, orthodox, believing Catholic is worse off spiritually than a liberal Protestant who thinks homosexual activity is moral and abortion is peachy, and Jesus was mostly just a great moral teacher and a "good man", etc.?
