In my former diocese, the bishop (who was the #3 ranking bishop in the church in terms of date of consecration) divorced his wife of three decades, annulled his own marriage, then remarried a divorced woman on Palm Sunday and honeymooned out of the US on Easter Sunday. So much for his “headship” of the diocese and for his flock and for the teraching of Holy Scripture. I left the Episcopal Church shortly thereafter.

, annulled his own marriage,

It's great being Bishop!

And Senator and Mrs. Elizabeth Taylor were married by the then Bishop of the Pepsicola Diocese of Virginia. I believe that was marriage number Seven for Ms. Violet Eyes to Die For.

Sacrament, schmacrament!

The River Tiber is deep and cold
The Green Gather Hymnal chills the soul.
But Sacraments burn with sacred fire,
Giving us each our heart's desire.
Alleluia.
(To the Tune of "Michael Row the Boat Ashore.)
