I think this is intentional.

The episcopalians pushing this left wing manure have to be athiests who only see the church as a job.

"I think this is intentional. "

There are some conservatives left in the Episcopal church apparently.....and they are trying to force the rest of the rabble to truly define themselves.

They have done everyone that remains an immense favor. There is no option for them but to split, if they are to remain Christian.

It's all done but the lawyering over Church assets.....

They may have some knowledge about God, but it is clear they do not know him personally.......and as such the Episcopal Church is being led by unbelievers!

In Dave Shifflett's recent book about the decline of mainstream denominations, he tells the story of Andrew Ferguson (I believe this is the same Andrew Ferguson who once wrote for the Weekly Standard), who was a student at an Episcopal seminary. Anyway, he was told by a fellow student that the reason he (Ferguson) was having problems at the seminary was that he (Ferguson) was the only person who believed in God.

It would be funnier if it weren't so true. I grew up in the Episcopal church. I love its history. I just don't like what it's doing to itself now. It makes me terribly sad.
