Yes, but why is this any different than still voting RAT because your pappy did or your great-pappy was a truman democrat? RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!

Theirs is a liberalism that says that the Bible has to be edited rather than followed,Whole books have been written about the decline of liberal protestantism which strain to say as much as this brief observation.

While I suppose both have a similar element of blind faith, I'm thinking of the really old folks who've literally worn a deeply rutted path to 'their' Church which, at this stage in the game, their walkers and/or wheelchairs aren't about to navigate out from.
On the other hand, younger people who unquestioningly vote for the same Party their family 'always' has - no matter what ideological depravity it's now engaged in, are stupid and/or mentally lazy.
In Canada, a lot of second & even third & fourth generation ethnic communities habitually vote for the matriarchal socialist Liberal gangsters, the same way so many Stateside blacks automatically support the 'Rats and not withstanding that their Faith leaders on both sides of the border are constantly denouncing both Parties' blatant moral bankruptcy.

"...a different collection of things that challenge us ..." that's the key thing the "inclusioners" fail to get, though they often say it - the things that challenge us are often sins, and our obligation is to overcome them - or at least make the sincere effort. We cannot redefine the teachings of Jesus to avoid the effort.

Simple question. When you think of Episcopalians, do you think of young people or people in their sixties?
Personally, I think of homosexuals and atheists.

Very sad. But God will not be mocked and twisted to suit the latest fashions.

A pox on all these joke denominations. Really? Why would anyone waste their time?It's a good church. I know, as an ex-episcopalian, plenty of pious, well-meaning, good-hearted people who believe in God and believe in Jesus, and are attracted to the easy grace, tradition, beauty, and style of Anglicanism.
The national church is an embarrassment and it's destroying the denomination. Obviously there must be plenty of sick, dysfunctional parishes that are supporting the deconstruction. In Mass and Cali, I would guess.
I think that it's got to play out. Without being enabled by those conservatives within that obviously don't have the votes any more to prevent the decay. It will crash, and out of the rubble that which is worth preserving will be preserved. Like many doddering liberal institutions today.

Thanks for the link to the Kinsolving article.
I suspect the MSM decided to help protect the loonies at that meeting by
not reporting this one line:
"That sweaty, bloody, tear-stained cross bears life.
Our Mother Jesus gives birth to a new creation, and we are his children."
Just incredible.
But maybe as a flyover-country yokel, I just didn't know this
was "mainstream" for the Episcopalian hierarchy.
