I strongly dislike both this dude and our current presiding Bishop and the direction of TEC.

My parish is still pretty mainstraim though leaning a little left for my tastes and our diocese is conservative.

They have both done harm while smugly thinking they are doing good.

I hope you are aware that the Episcopal Church's General Convention just voted that each and every parish--including YOUR parish--MUST hire cross-dressing men or women who've mutilated their bodies so they can pretend to be their opposite sex ("transgendered"), right? That's correct, from priest, deacon, warden, nursery school teacher, volunteer or janitor....if a cross-dressing self-mutilator applies for any of those positions, you cannot reject them for the job on the basis of (that) insanity...

They also voted to institute "same sex blessings" rites (gay marriage). It may take a couple more years--but in your conservative diocese, your moderate church & priest will be REQUIRED to perform weddings for homosexuals very soon.

I don't mean to be uncharitable, but I don't care how terrific one's priest or individual parish church may be, or how honorable its history is... to continue any sort of affiliation with the organization (it ceased to be a "Church" a while ago...) of what the Episcopal Church has become...is to participate in immoral insanity.
