I don't think that the ePISScopal high council (or whatever lofty title they use) has voted yet on whether to ordain the openly (practicing) gay man as a bishop. The issue threatens to divide the church.

Frankly, those that cannot comprehend the Word from which they should be teaching deserve to be culled out.

Annd along those lines, The Catholic Church is getting around to telling those that claim it's constituency that God is Taking Notes.......No Wonder Kerry has such a Long face.

An excerpt..."The Vatican injected itself into the simmering gay marriage debate Thursday, firing off a letter issuing instructions to Catholic politicians to oppose any legalization efforts. ``The Catholic lawmaker has a moral duty to express his opposition (to gay marriage laws) clearly and publ icly and to vote against it,'' the directive read. ``To vote in favor of a law so harmful to the common good is gravely immoral.''"
