Even Satan couldn’t have come up with some of the freakdom being concocted by the freaks.

They might as well just do a black mass.

Years ago, after I reverted to Catholicism after many years, I was on a business trip in SF. My hotel room looked over Nob Hill with Grace Cathedral to my left. Since I had free time in my schedule I thought it would be fun to check out what I thought to be a Catholic cathedral. For a good while after my reversion I could swear I felt the real presence from the tabernacle in Catholic churches. I can’t really describe the feeling well, but it was real. Anyway, I walked over to Grace Cathedral, walked in without looking around, went into the church and kneeled down to pray. Weirdly, I felt nothing. It wasn’t until I got up and walked around that I found out it was an Episcopal cathedral. No tabernacle. No real presence, hence no feeling of the real presence. I know it’s subjective, but it was a strange experience.

If the Episcopal Church didn’t have some really valuable urban properties and some nice buildings, it would not exist.

“Recent statistics show that The Episcopal Church is spiraling downward. I can’t help but believe that God has removed His blessing from this Church. Unless something changes, The Episcopal Church is going to die.”

Episcopal Bishop William Love of Albany.

Bishop Love refuses to acknowledge same-sex marriage (see link). This is a brave man, a voice of sanity in the Episcopal Church. He’s right, it’s in serious decline and he cites the reasons why. Those reasons revolve around the church adopting practices antithetical to the Christian religion. A bit long but worth an examination.

Funny but I haven’t noticed too many examples from the LGBT...XYZ community of “loving equity across all people” when those people disagree with the agenda of these “loving people”.

I was confirmed in that Cathedral in 1985. Right before the true onset of inclusiveness and women’s ordination and gays and gay marriage demands

As IowaHawk said:

“Take a respected institution.

Kill it.

Gut it.

Wear its carcass as a skin suit.

And demand respect.”

This fits the Episcopalians to a tee.

This rubbish is why I speak to God and the saints directly. Why should I have to endure the perverse behavior of so called church people.
