No more than the AMiA bishops, who were also consecrated by Global South archbishops.
I've heard the CANA situation described as a move by Peter Akinola to help move the center of Anglicanism to Nigeria ... not coincidentally under his control. In many ways, it reminds one of the the Constantinople vs. Rome split.
The Eastern Orthodox v. Rome split in AD 1024 was overty over an archane discription of the inter-relationship of the Trinity....and covertly over politics.
The Episcopal split is over the very authority of scriptures--reflected in something as basic as ethics (and ethics on which NO Christian group has disagreed for 2000 years now). To suggest that the Virginia churches are just stooges of an African Archbishop's power grap is just silly.
Sounds like ou've been listening to the revisionists of TEC too long.
