Episcopal Ultimatum

The scary part is that she probably said this with a straight face.

Episcopal Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori is confronting Nigerian Archbishop Peter Akinola head-on with a new demand that he not install Truro Church rector Martyn Minns as head of a parallel denomination this coming weekend.

"Such action would violate the ancient customs of the church" in terms of the sacrosanct boundaries of individual bishops, the presiding bishop wrote in a letter released yesterday.

Excuse me, but the Episcopal Church has been jettisoning the ancient customs and teachings of the church and of Scripture for decades, and has only accelerated the process in recent years. As such, I can’t decide whether “laughable” or “hypocritical” is the best adjective to describe her demand.
