“This diocese stands for orthodox Christianity,” said Fort Worth Bishop Jack Iker on Saturday, “and we are increasingly at odds with the revisionist practices and teachings of the official leadership of the Episcopal Church. The Episcopal Church we once knew no longer exists.”

See, it’s stuff like this that ultimately makes me a Catholic moderate.  I’m torn up about it, because I do really want the Catholic Church to take more liberal stands, yet I also want us to operate as a community.  And when that doesn’t happen–a la Episcopalians–there are nasty ruptures of community.
