I am so glad I am Orthodox.

Later this week the diocese will approve blessings for dildoes and bondage whips. On Thursday the diocese is expected to approve a new liturgical rite for a fetus who is about to be aborted (only at the request of the mother). Diocesean leaders plan to charge very high fees for these liturgies and are making these moves, in the words of one cleric, "to ensure our financial viability as a diocese." Leaders expect the current membership rolls to double over the next year, rising to 278 members from the current 141. This would taper off over the next few decades as the largely childless membership grows older.

"Virginia Episcopal Bishop Peter J. Lee, who was praised in the resolution as an example of "grace and civility in the midst of disagreement," said his flock wants it that way."

It sounds to me like the Christians left this flock to find the REAL SHEPARD.

Any Episcopalians who want to join our church are welcome, but you must believe in JESUS CHRIST to be a member.
