When your denomination abandons the Bible, it's time to find another church.

Amen to that. I believe that the Episcopal Church will lose at least 25% of its membership over this.

This is an old Anglican story. Henry didn't like the Church's rules on marriage, so he started his own "church", which now doesn't like the rules on gays. Hey, change it it's the Anglican way. Henry looted the convents and monasteries; the new gay Episcopals will remove prelate like this one and take the properties. Nothing to see here, folks. History continues on the same path.

"I think there is a lot of work to be done there pastorally as well as professionally," he said. "It's a conservative congregation, so this does not surprise me. It has been one torn by strife and a lot of conservative feeling over the years." This seems to me that this is related to the 'conservatism = mental illness' theory that's making the rounds. In this instance, it seems the congregation has been taking a biblical stand on matters for some time and the church leaders see it not as defending the faith but as symtomatic of a conservative mindset.
Kudos for the congregation and to hell with the bishops.
