How do Episcopalians reconcile that belief with what the Bible says about it: Jesus said: "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by me." (John 14:6)

I would posit that a large number of Episcopalians have never read the Bible. It was never stressed in Sunday school when I was growing up. I am an Episcopalian and stopped going to church a long time ago because I could see the direction the church was taking. Instead, I am reading the Bible on my own and feel much closer to Christianity than I ever did growing up and going to church every week.

Good for you. Sometimes that is the best way to re-discover true Christianity. Too many churches these days are focused more on material things (i.e. money, what type of car you drive, clothes you wear, etc.) than on the spiritual aspects of their fellow man.

I myself became so disgusted with church that I quit completely for about 12 years until the spirit of God moved me to search for another. I was fortunate enough to find a good church with a decent congregation and a Pastor who preaches the gospel of Christ, not the gospel of man.
