The Anglican church I attend occasionally is just going to get more and more conservative and separate from the rest of the church. And that's fine with me.

Sadly we are watching the last death throws of a once great church. The liberals, GAYS and Lesbians have succeeded here just like they are trying to do to the Boy Scouts.

We have an Episcopal church neighboring our LCMS congregation. There are very few cars there on Sunday. I don't know why that is, however I'd have assume it's because of the gay issue.

For this very reason the wife and I left the ELCA last year for the LCMS. The ELCA narrowly voted down a similar amendment in August, 2006, but no one is betting the issue has been settled.

I also read earlier this week that Presbyterians are looking at a more inclusive feminist/actvist reading of the Bible, including redefinitions of the Trinity and references changed from 'he' to 'he or she', even in the first person.

What a world we create for ourselves.

We attend a Mennonite Church which has split from the Mennonite Council of Churches due to the acceptance of gays.
