Seems like the global Anglican community will indeed have a scism--the American branch of Anglicanism would rather follow the ways of the world than the ways of God.

The sheer insanity of this mind boggling. This could never be; Jesus was without sin.

Homosexuals, on the other hand are guilty of an abomination and must be be put to death:

"If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death. (Leviticus 20:13)

"Seems like the global Anglican community will indeed have a scism--the American branch of Anglicanism would rather follow the ways of the world than the ways of God."

- Somehow (and just how would make the subject for a good book), homosexuals, their supporters and other liberal social worker types have taken over this Christian denomination.
The anglican church is now doomed, as doomed as doomed can be. All that remains is for various governments and land speculators to fight over the distribution of it's real estate holdings - often located in prime business locations. I feel sorry for it's remaining adherents - often aged members who survey their increasingly empty pews each week in bewilderment. The hierarchy of the church have betrayed their faithful support as surely as Judas betrayed Christ.

It hardly behooves the man whose own ordination is creating a worldwide schism in his church to make inflammatory statements about Jesus in order to make himself appear to be righteous.

I'm not religious myself, but respect those who are, and feel it's not right for one man to split his church over such an issue unless he really feels the hand of his God upon his shoulder.

I don't believe that to be true of the entire American branch of the Anglican Communion. Out here in the West Texas Diocese, the clear majority of us are still livid with rage over the anti-Biblical consecration of a gay bishop. Nor are we alone as a conservative diocese. So I think there'll be a schism right here in the USA.

This report will make even more of us see red, and it will get around to everyone; I and others will see to that.

I say I'll be glad when Griswold is outta there as the Bishop of the ECUSA, but those that think like him are clearly in charge at the HOB.

don't tar me with that brush.
