Hmm, so let me get this straight. The clergy who are opposed to the openly gay bishop are the ones begin defrocked.

What a sad state of affairs!!

When I read things like this, I hate to say it, but I'm glad my mother, who was a devote Episcopal, did not live long enough to see what has happened to her church!!

The Episcopal Church is not really a church anymore, is it? My wife brought me with her into the Episcopal Church ( I was born and raised Catholic) in New Haven. We attend a chuch in Killingworth now although not regularly. Looks to me like I might try the local Catholic church now.

There are neocommunists forces at work in this country to destroy every traditional/conservayive institution in our country. The ultimate goal is to destroy capitalism. That objective is furthered every time some traditional authority is destroyed and replaced by a fuzzy concensus where there are no standards. The fairies, illegal alien supporters, firearmaphobes, antifinal reward whackos, and so on lead. There are many others, all chipping away, little pieces at a time!

Well, the bishops who support Robinson are saying "This is what we have decided. Accept it happily, or we will fire you."

From the Unintentional Humor Dept.:

Keyword: "HOMOSEXUYALS"
Is that southern for homosexuals?

Hmm, so let me get this straight.
Something recently removed from Episcopal doctrine.

Ping!

Off of the blogs, out of the Internet and into the New Haven Register.

Will this get the ACN - known as the Network - to respond?

Still remember the last Episcopal service I attended. It was at the National Cathedral in D.C. The Pastor giving the sermon was from Connecticut, and he proceeded to bash President Bush as a reckless militarist whose actions had caused muslims across the world to fear and hate the U.S.
Did something I've never done before--walked out in the middle of a sermon. It's time for a reformation in America's Protestant denominations, to wrest control of them from the grip of leftist politicians disguising themselves as church leaders. It's tragic, but the Presbyterians and Methodists are following in the Episcopalian's footsteps.
The Episcopal Church has lost at least 30% of its membership since the 60's. Hmmm, wonder why....

Typical liberalism at work. They try to scare and frighten you until you hold their belief. It's why the MSM and our colleges are filled with liberalism.

And that same thing is being said and executed all around the country. Many have already been defrocked and/or are in the process. Woe unto these.
