An Episcopal priest who says the church has become too liberal on issues such as the ordination of women and recognition of same-sex unions

We'll take him!

I hope Moyer contacts Marcus Grodi at the COMING HOME NETWORK.

_ An Episcopal priest who says the church has become too liberal on issues such as the ordination of women and recognition of same-sex unions was defrocked Thursday by the bishop of Pennsylvania.

And isn't this why we have some Episcopal priests becoming either Anglican or Roman Catholic priests?

It's much more interesting now:

The Archbishop of Canterbury has said he will not honor the deposition; and 23 active and retired bishops have signed a statement saying that they will not accept it.

And just to bring the warfare out into the open, Bishop Duncan of the neighboring Diocese of Pittsburgh has not only accepted Moyer as a priest in that diocese, but has also instructed another of his priests (the curate at Moyers' church) to remain at that church (which is in Bennison's diocese) and serve without license.

This could be an interesting ride.
