Conservative Episcopalians have moved quickly in the month since the consecration of V. Gene Robinson as the denomination's first openly homosexual bishop to set up an alternate denomination that has legal and ecumenical clout.

Pittsburgh Bishop Robert Duncan has been selected to lead this new group, called the Network of Confessing Dioceses and Congregations, which includes 13 active Episcopal bishops and 384,935 laity. That's the number of signatures to a statement of support on the Web site of the American Anglican Council (AAC).

Oh, just what we need. Two orthodox groups who don't agree with each other, and start to go down their own merry paths.

Please, dear Lord, spare me the multiple impending schisms in the Episcopal Church.
