Up north, the Anglican Church of Canada's Faith, Worship and Ministry Committee just recommended that the ACC flip off the Anglican Communion:

That, while acknowledging the sincere concern of Anglicans throughout the world for the unity of the Communion and recognizing the pain of Anglicans of all persuasions caused by recent events, this Faith, Worship and Ministry Committee reluctantly but firmly recommends to the Council of General Synod the following resolution:

1. That the Council of General Synod confirm the membership of the Anglican Church of Canada in the Anglican Consultative Council with the expectation that the duly elected members attend and participate in the June 2005 meeting of the Council in the UK.

2. That the Council of General Synod welcome the invitation to explain at the June 2005 meeting of the Anglican Consultative Council the current situation, the steps that were taken by Dioceses of the Anglican Church of Canada and the General Synod and the underlying theological and biblical rationale with respect to the decision to bless committed same sex unions.

3. That the Council of General Synod, in response to the second part of Paragraph 14 of the Primates’ Statement of February 24 2005, commend the Windsor Report to the Anglican Church of Canada for study.

Memo to orthodox Anglican primates: the urge to give second, third, fourth or fifth chances is an admirable one.  But you can give the ACC and ECUSA two, three, four or five hundred chances and they won't take any of them.  Absent an outpouring of the Holy Spirit, they are never going to repent and the sooner you realize that, the happier the Anglican Communion will be.

Well, at least they've clearly expressed their intentions. I wish the ECUSA bishops would do the same (clearly express their intentions, not flip off the Anglican communion). Their coyness and refusal to take a clear stand is very frustrating.
