People aren't going to leave a church because of most disagreements, but homosexuality will drive them away, especially when you ordain a practicing one as bishop.
Have you ever noticed this push for gay ordination is only going on in the churches in which the denomination as a whole owns the property. Churches like the Southern Baptisits, in which congregations own property individually, don't have nearly as much trouble with these activists.
Good point, though I wonder if the age of the whole church has something to do with that as well. The Anglicans have been together much longer than the Baptists have.
