The overwhelming majority of the church are opposed to this --- it is the "leadership" (largely in the NorthEast) that betrayed the people.

I assume that Episcopalians, as a hierarchical denomination have the equivalent of heresy trials. Why are they not being begun against every last priest and bishop that holds the Word of God in contempt?

They actually are such hearding underway, but it moves with GLACIAL speed and whimpiness brought on by a desire for "unity" in God's church.

(Plus, so much of the leadership was invaded by heretics, akin to the Methodist church in the 60's and 70's.)

We did have a fairly stern rebuke from the Archbishop of Canterbury --- the first step.

As an aside, one can find out if a given Episcopal church rejects the heresy by seeing if it is a member of the "American Anglican Counsel" (conservative/orthodox Episopalians) --- the rough equivalent of the Missouri Synod Lutherans.
