Good to see these folks taking steps to reclaim their denomination.

Excellent move.

The worthless Bishop of N California is retiring. He didn't want to face a lot of us on a one to one basis and explaing his vote for perversion.

I used to attend Episcopal churches in college. I loved the beauty of the liturgy and found it very spiritual. It just took a while for me to begin to realize that something was a little screwy about the politics and that the doctrine could at times get very wishy-washy.

I've since become very much at home as an Evangelical Presbyterian, but I do hope the Episcopal Church is able to fix this mess. I'm sure they've lost far more parishioners than just me over this.

It has always been The Queer Agenda come absolutely FIRST! So what if the Episcopalian Church is destroyed? The Church was always SECOND, just an expendible pawn in the game.

I'm glad these folks are coming to their senses and realizing what an incredibly bad idea it was to take a queer and make him a Bishop. Talk about desecration!

YEE HAH!!!

I will watch this with interest. My guess is that the Episcopal Church will continue to evade its responsibilities to do anything meaningful, anything which might require it to take a stand.

If you look at what they've done and how they've done it for the last half century, you can only conclude that if they do anything clear and distinct, it will represent a radical change. After all you're talking about a Church where the house of bishops can declare ordinations invalid and then, without even a retraction, allow the so-called ordinands to function as priests.

They are afraid of being a church.

Episcopal laypersons

Laypersons? Sheesh! How liberal is this "Christian Wire Service" anyway?
