The announcement that the Episcopal Divinity School in Cambridge, MA, has chosen a lesbian, pro-abortion president to lead the seminary has sent shock waves around the Anglican Communion. The appointment of Katherine Hancock Ragsdale highlights a week that also saw TEC bishop-elect Kevin Thew Forrester replace a reading from the New Testament with a reading from the Quran at St. Paul's Marquette, Michigan.
One wonders what Episcopal boundaries and barriers have yet to be crossed that the dying embers of historic Christianity could possibly fan into life. That the Diocese of Massachusetts has a functioning transgendered priest complete with a sex change operation (he appeared at Lambeth 2008) mocks not only marriage, but any notion of what normalcy in sexual matters might mean in The Episcopal Church. Consider, too, that 19 of the 41 resolutions to be presented at GC2009 have to do with normalizing same-sex unions, proposing same sex rites and deep-sixing a resolution - B033 - that restrains further homosexual ordinations into the priesthood. They mock The Episcopal Church as a Christian denomination.

Her statements are the genocide of the vulnerable and murder say orthodox Episcopal Bishops.

At what point does the Episcopal Church become totally irrelevant? If a church can appoint a priest who can’t decide when a baby is a human being, there’s not much point in even going to the church.

She and the rest of the apostate church are going to be very useful to the chaos agenda of the future.

no wonder why I left that church with my family
it has gone to shambles, either there is one faith in the church or not but one church cannot decide what the faith thinks it is compared to another
the homos have been waging a war against religion for a long time and they have been getting in on the inside
they go to Church, get to know some people and then when they are friends with some of the church goers they tell them that they are homos but just want tobe left alone it is all a ploy to bring down religion
how many times have you heard someone say well I know some and they are nice, they want to be left alone bla bla
well go with them to their freak parades and see another side of these perverts

Homosexual acts, like any other sin, does not preclude a believer from salvation.
Arguing that God is okay with homosexual acts, thus distorting the word of God, will.
I wish people would separate homosexuals from those who are pushing the gay agenda. One group are just fallen sinners no different from you or I, the latter is a whole different story.
It’s possible to express outrage at the latter without hating the former.
To: tcg
And this is one of the reasons I departed the Episcopal Church (in which I was raised and baptised) decades ago!!
They have charted a course I don’t choose to follow!!

Of course. It’s one thing to welcome a homosexual to church with open arms (and I would). But it’s another to allow them to be a pastor.

You're not the only one. From Wikipedia:
A loss of 115,000 members was reported for the years 20035, which has been attributed in part to controversy concerning ordination of homosexuals to the priesthood and the election of Gene Robinson (who is openly gay) as Bishop of New Hampshire.[61]

Seminary? Not any longer. It's a heretical distribution center.

Amen! (so good even a Presbyterian yells Amen!)
And I've known some fine, Jesus loving Episcopalians.. my prayers go out to them.
