Scottish Anglicans: We Ordain Practicing Gays

Fox News ^ | 3/23/05 | AP

LONDON — Being a practicing homosexual is no bar to becoming a priest, the Scottish Episcopal Church (search) says, a stance that puts it at odds with the Anglican Communion (search) in other parts of the world.

Don't think this is a duplicate, did not find an exact match. But this is further evidence of the slide of the Episcopal Church into oblivion. I don't know where it will all end.

[goldstategop]

Agreed. Without moral standards, that church will not survive.

(Denny Crane: "Sometimes you can only look for answers from God and failing that... and Fox News".)

THAT'S MY CHURCH, and why moral relativism has seeped it's Dogma IN to it is the hand of Satan is beyond me? PRAY for schism.

[k2blader]

Disgusting.

Practice makes perfect??

Homosexual Agenda Ping.

So Scotland goes down the tubes as well. Or at least the Anglican ones. "Practicing gays". IOW, promiscuous sodomizing homosexuals can be ministers of God. Barf alert.

Why don't they just be honest and admit that they worship their own genitals? The most reprehensible type of idol worship that exists.

Let DirtyHarryY2K and me know if you want on/off this pinglist.

Sounds like a bunch of wild turkeys in that Anglican Order...

Well, I, for one, thought that it was supposed to be the "love of money"="root of all evil."

Anyway you look at it, worshipping the "created" instead of the "Creator" is kinda messed up, IMHO.

[MisterRepublican]

What's next for these "churches"? Ordaining practicing Satanists?

[Blake#1]

The Anglican Church has already begun reform (read no gays). In fact the reformed church is growing by "leaps and bounds". Naturally you will not read this in the MSM. Many former Roman Catholics are joining and/or organizing their own Parishes.

Oh...so thats why theres no underwear under those kilts....

"So Scotland goes down the tubes as well."

Come on. So a very, very minor church in Scotland does this and the whole of Scotland are raging nancies? There proportionally much more pro-gay policies, places, laws, clubs, and people in the USA than probably anywhere on the planet.

Hardly any Scots are Anglican/Episcopalian.

[Route101]

just the wiff of pantie waste fron Scotland is enough to bring the Mel Gibson give 'em hell.....

[StonyBurk]

How sad that the church was given to the world to bring
men to Christ-- but the unequal yoke of the righteous with the unrighteous has corrupted the Bride.As Jude records
the respose of those who Believe to these reprobates ought
be as the angel to Satan (over Moses) "The Lord Rebuke thee"

This is old news now, not worth re-pinging.

Traditional Anglican ping, continued in memory of its founder Arlin Adams.

FReepmail sionnsar if you want on or off this moderately high-volume ping list (typically 3-7 pings/day).
This list is pinged by sionnsar and newheart.

[newheart]

Oops. Should have read further.

You're right it is old news. OTOH, the fact that it has been picked up by Fox News means it will, sadly, get more play in the wider world.

[little jeremiah]

What about that verse - something about "Their god is their belly, and they glory in their shame."
