"Who is more sinfully disobedient? Those who promote the consecration of a practicing homosexual as a spiritual leader, or those who forcefully protest such an abomination?"

Oh, the consecration of Gene Robinson has been called and continues to be called a "prophetic call to justice" wherein "God is doing a new thing" and those of us who vigorously oppose it and call for a return to faithfulness are standing in the way of the Spirit. (BTW, I've noticed that references to the "Spirit" no longer carry the modifier "Holy.")

I'm glad that you are in a faithful diocese...mine was split down the middle at GC2003 and continues to be split. My parish had the attitude of "well, that's up there in New Hampshire, don't bother me." But local circumstances have forced us to discuss the "elephant in the middle of the room." And most have opted to listen to the Bishop's exhortation that all is well. "What unites us is stronger than what divides us."

I can't wait for 2006 when Griswold is out of there. But I understand that the liberal HOB is probably just going to select another PC Bishop of the ECUSA.

I have to wonder: Would it do any good to write letters of protest to those guys?
