The Episcopal Church: Cult of the "New Thang"



As reported in Episcopal Life, The Rev. Mary Glasspool, bishop-elect in the Diocese of Los Angeles has received the necessary number of consents from Bishops and Diocesan Standing Committees in order for the Presiding Bishop of The Episcopal Church to declare that her ordination and consecretion as Bishop will proceed on May 15. Glasspool is the second openly gay partnered priest to be elected a bishop in the Episcopal Church.

The ordination of openly gay partnered persons to clerical orders overthrows two thousand years of tradition and plain biblical teaching in the Christian Church Universal. The move by The Episcopal Church to ordain only gay, partnered bishops has proceeded against the will of most of the Anglican Communion (global churches attached to the Church of England, The Anglican Church) and has caused a deep split among members within the United States of America.
