Then your Sister (and why would she marry a church? and why that church?) has bought the line of nonsense being pushed by the Washington Post and the revisionists/apostates in the Episcopal Church.

Probably explains why she's still there.

I was an Episcopalian for 47 years. What she is being told is completely untrue . . . but that's the kind of line the revisionists are slinging in order to keep people in the pews and paying money.

I was an Episcopalian for 47 years.

Then you must remember the years of Bishop James Pike and Bishop John Spong.

As you know they were both media darlings and wrote numerous books denying the Trinity, the Virgin Birth, the Accession, the deity of Jesus, and everything else central to Christianity while they were being well-paid Espiscopalians bishops. Pike was censored and did resign his job as Bishop of California in 1966, but Bishop Spong is still drawing his pension as the retired bishop of New Jersey. Both should have been expelled from the Espicopal Church because they posed as Christian bishops and they weren't even Christian! You are right that this has been a long, long struggle and homosexuality is just the latest in a long line of straws that finally broke a whole lot of camel's backs.

AmericanMade1776: Re your post #16: Sionnsar , look no need to insult my sister, she couldn't help it if her husband was an Episcopalian. You sure are an arrogant self righteous person.

I will forgo taking a well deserved swat at your understanding and knowledge because your comment in #16 was too pitiful. Read this carefully: sionssar wasn't making fun of your sister in #12, he was casting a little pearl of a joke and you tried to bite him for it. He learns fast, I doubt he'll cast anymore pearls your way. You don't know the first thing about sionssaur, who's one of the stand-up Episcopalians fighting the good fight.

An apology to him would be in order if you want to maintain any credibility.
