You are correct. It is only the ECUSA (Episcopal Church in the USA & Canada) that is pushing this nonsense. I can only conclude that this convention is seeking a permanent schism, otherwise they would not have acted in this way. Right now I am completely sick to my stomach. I've been an Episcopalian for 40 years and I don't know if I could go to another denomination now. So far my own parish is staying true to Scripture but who knows what lies ahead.

One question, Where does your tithing go and what does it support?
I'm a former Episcopalian who now is happily a member of the LCMS. I grew up Episcopalian, used the 28 BCP, loved the liturgy, loved the hymns, but slowly over time, I began to wonder if staying wasn't subliminally compromising on the more fundamental truths, sort of guilty by association.
Now 9 years into my Lutheran fellowship, I feel refreshed and at peace, no longer bothered by those nagging doubts.When and if the LCMS ever deviates from "Sola Scriptura" I'll look around again.
