This so-called "bishop" provides more good evidence that it is better to follow Paul's instructions that he wrote under the inspiration of the Holy Ghost-

Even Bishops want their 10 minutes of attention and notoriety and will say most anything to get it.

[sinsofsolarempirefan]

A female bishop? I thought they were supposed to be in communion with the Church of England?

"Washington Episcopal Bishop Marianne Budde"

I stopped right there.

[twister881]

The Episcopal church ceased being a Christian denomination long ago.

[Chode]

Marianne Budde, there's the problem right there...

[2001convSVT]

Then he can’t be a Christian. That is a major Tenet of Christianity.

[Obadiah]

Marianne Budde

[Lee N. Field]

opined that if someone were to discover a tomb with Jesus' remains in it, the entire enterprise would not come crashing down.

Is the bishopess talking about the ECUSA, or Christianity?

[MIchaelTArchangel]

Again, please remind me why I should care what the Church of Faggotry in Washington or any of its clergy (Leon, Priestess Budde, et. al.) says?

How would they even prove that it was Jesus tomb?

I have no doubt that they could one day find a tomb, identified as belonging to one “Jesus”, in however that is written in ancient Aramaic, or whatever.

Even a man that had been crucified.

So what? Lot's of people got crucified back then. In some places it's still going on. I won't mention which area of the world, or who's doing it.

“Jesus” probably was a fairly common name. Heck, even my own name, Chesley, was a lot more common 100 years ago, though rare now. We've gotten on ancestry.com and found about a dozen “Chesley”’s on my family tree, and another 8-9 on my wife's family tree. So why should “Jesus” be presumed to belong to the just one man?

So given that, why should NOT a man named Jesus have been crucified, who was NOT the Saviour? And if they found identifying marks as “King of the Jews”, or “the Messiah”, there, your fraud detector better start binging. But if they ever were actually able to prove that it was the Jesus's body lying in the grave, Christianity would die, immediately.

...Episcopal Bishop Marianne Budde....

Well, there is part of the problem right there, a female bishop.

[C19fan]

The heretic does not even bother to pretend she believes in the Nicene Creed.

[Ann Archy]

Women Bishops and Women Rabbis are equivalent to Homosexual Marriage.

Washington Episcopal Bishop Denies Bodily Resurrection of Jesus

So do the cult of Jehovah's Witnesses! If Christ did not raise from the dead bodily, "you are still in your sins" 1 Cor. 15:12-18

[Cronos]

you know, we could say "oh, this is the ECUSA, forget about it", but we need to remember that the general public and the MSM then use the ECUSA as a chink to break into the Christian armor -- they've used them to push gay marriage in

We cannot sit back and say oh, they're ECUSA

[onedoug]

What’s the point of her episcopate then?

[OpusatFR]

So, when did he stop being Christian?

Episcopagan is more like.

*Sorry Ellen. I really respected your dad and am very glad he never lived to see this.

[kaehurowing]

Episcopalians aren’t Christians, although the often pretend to be to trick people. But it’s basically a cult.

[boatbums]

Amen! I kinda think the Romans as well as the Jewish religious leaders of the time would have exhausted every avenue they could to disprove that Jesus was the Messiah. Even today, the common explanation is the exact same one those leaders gave back then:

When the chief priests had met with the elders and devised a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money, telling them, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came during the night and stole him away while we were asleep.’ If this report gets to the governor, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.” So the soldiers took the money and did as they were instructed. And this story has been widely circulated among the Jews to this very day. (Matthew 28:12-15)

Of course, they leave out the part about how EVERY one of the Apostles (except John) died a martyrs' death rather than say that Jesus was not risen. Now, people WILL die for lie, but NO ONE will die for what they KNOW is a lie!
