I left 10 years ago for a Bible-believing church, after my diocese adopted a marketing plan stressing gay rights to attract homosexuals to the church. That was how they were going to increase their numbers.
My parish has lost 60% of its members since 2002. It’s basically now all homosexuals and people over 75.

Good for you, sad for your former diocese. I left (P)ECUSA in mid '83, not entirely voluntarily (I'd moved to a new jurisdiction), but I've been happy to witness the growth of traditional Anglicanism in my "new" church.

This is the liberal conundrum in a nutshell. Spot a problem or name a goal, then do the exact opposite of what any reasonable person would do and when it fails, blame those who tried to warn them not to go down that road.
