Another ex-Episcopalian here, now happily in the arms of Mother Church. I would urge all Episcopalians who are disgusted by this man - and many others like him in the Episcopal Church - to just leave, and leave now. If Rome is not your thing then look elsewhere. The point is: just GO. It’s hard, but once you do it, you will wonder what took you so long, and your spiritual walk with Our Lord Jesus Christ will take on an all-new level of importance and meaning in your life.

Another point: most Episcopalians know at least one priest or bishop, and maybe more than one, who has been fired, and possibly even de-frocked forever, because of one incidence of a sexual affair with a woman resulting in a divorce from his wife. Gene not only got off scot-free, but is lionized in the media, made a bishop, and is asked to speak at huge public events of national importance such as the Inauguration of President Barack Obama. This blatant and in-your-face hypocrisy around this one issue, more than anything else, is what is fueling the massive exodus from the Episcopal Church

Something about calling your Savior a liar when He said He’s the only way...

catholics and orthodox were excluded in this inauguration.

instead we have a pop culture televangilist and a antheist homosexual episcopal bishop...

CBS’s wonderful reporter just reported that Rick Warren came out of St. John’s to welcome Biden when, in fact, it was Rev. Dr. León, St. John’s rector.”

Which may lead credence to the fact that “reporters” have no idea who religious leaders are....they cannot ID anyone outside of Osama Bin Laden, it seems.

Jesus is going to have the last laugh on these godless politicians and unsaved liberals.

There’s a place of torment called HELL which will take care of them for all eternity.
