It's probably splitsville for the US and UK churches from most of the rest of the Anglican communion. I wonder if the US church will also split.

It breaks my heart to see a one-time great church go down this road to schism. The American church will split with a great deal of bitterness. The priestly orders will also probably be lost which was a part of the Lambeth Conference.(You can't consecrate that which is unconsecratable, ie, a homosexual) The EC started down the wrong road many years ago when they allowed the ordination of women which although I tend to agree with that in principle, was ramrodden through without allowing it to be brought up again twice more as the canons stated. They promptly lost a million members. This will now happen again and another million will be lost taking them to a little over a million. Great job guys! on the way to schism. Drop dead.
