Bishop Andrew Smith says the priests have, quote, "abandoned the communion of the church."

No, Bishop, they just abandoned sodomy. The last recorded vote on the matter took place in the town which gave the pratice its name. It was nearly the same result-- the whole town was for it except for Lot and his family.

So Lot and his family left town. Remember what happened next?

It is prophesied that the churches will become apostate - these priests would be well served (and serving) by changing religious denominations, or even forming non-denominational churches that stick with Biblical principles.

As time goes by, the vile anti-social behavior of Queers steadily gets worse and worse . . . as this current FReeper article demonstrates!!! Therefore, allow me to repeat my own personal rant one more time:

Oak Hay, so I'm very disturbed and continually puzzled about how a small bunch of contrary to nature freaks can destroy our entire civilization. . . BUT DAMMIT, THEY'RE DOING IT !!!

These unsavory and unclean sub-human creatures delight in ramming their urine exhaust pipes into the rectal relief tubes of young boys (and of each other) !!! They brag and crow loudly about their filthy behavior !!! They demand access to our young and innocent children... so they can commit sodomy and oral sex acts upon them!!! Then they scream and holler...

"Homophobe"

... when we seek to save our children from their filthy and immoral activities!!! WHY IS THIS ALLOWED TO CONTINUE IN THIS ONCE-FREE REPUBLIC ??? DO WE NOT HAVE THE RIGHT AND MORAL DUTY TO PROTECT OUR CHILDREN FROM SLIME LIKE THIS ???

This is a classical case of where the majority could "not be bothered" with going to meetings and thus let the radical element of the church gain power.

This started back in the 60s and 70s.

It should serve as a warning to anyone who wants to "let someone else do it; I'm too busy."

It is ironic to note that the Seabury Church in Groton is named for the man who _was_ bishop of CT and RI, and that its pastor is now being persecuted by something holding that very same Office.

Samuel Seabury 1729-1796

Samuel Seabury, who in 1748 advocated Hempstead, Long Island as the site for what later became King's College in New York City, graduated from Yale in 1748. He then studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh, only to change professional direction by becoming ordained an Anglican minister by the Bishop of London in 1753. As the rector of the Anglican church in Hempstead, he sent tutored several boys who later went on to King's College.

Before the Revolution, Seabury produced many pamphlets in which he tried to convince Americans that their greatest freedom lay in submitting to the British government and securing change through peaceful appeals to the government. He joined the British lines on Long Island in the Fall of 1776. In 1785, he became rector of St. James' Church, New London, Connecticut, and served as bishop of Connecticut and Rhode Island until his death in 1796.
