As you may or may not know from watching the Ford services at the National Cathedral, he was Episcopal, and one of the things Ford was concerned about before his death , which he had talked over with his pastor...was the division in his church.

The Division within the Episcopal Church is over gay Priests. Guess some don't like it.

[AnalogReigns]

The division within the Episcopal Church is who is authoritative in the Church, Christ through His word, or speculating bishops and priests, through their following avant garde social trends?

I did notice Fr. Certain's comment trying to make President Ford on the side those tearing the Episcopal Church apart with their shameful perversions. Whether they were true of Ford's thoughts or not, the priest's comments were wholly inappropriate.

Exactly. The "minister" took great pains to highlight Ford's "supposed views". The minister was quite the opportunist and manipulator of a state funeral. He got his personal agenda out there, front and center, including worldwide media coverage. It personally made me want to puke. The Episcopal church is done, put a fork in them. What an embarrassment to watch.
