thanks for the post. to bad Danforth and the folks on the left don't know that "open communion" is not a part of our faith, but a part of the left.

“How do we respond?” Danforth asked. “We should do a much better job of making it clear that communion (in the Episcopal Church) is open… and then let God sort it out.”

I hope they don't mean open admission to the Eucharist. Title I, Canon 17, Section 7 says:

No unbaptized person shall be eligible to receive Holy Communion in this church.
