I concur. I am really tired of all this and I don't give a rat's a$$ what the Episcopal Church does. They went off the deep end years ago. For those who are Episcopalians I am sorry for your plight.

If you choose to stay please stop complaining about the distinct odor of sulfur and the warm temperature under the pews. You know the score.
