Episcopal Church Rejects Anglican Church Orders
The headline above is not mine; it is from the New York Times this morning.
Bottom line: The Episcopal Church bishops seem to have fudged once more, but many feel what they gave is not enough. The schismatic ship of the evangelical right was not given words which might have caused it to turn around.
You can read some interesting analysis of what they actually said, which the NYTimes article does not really "get" at Covenant, where we have five authors who have already done penetrating analysis of what this means.
My question: how will the Methodists and Presbyterians avoid this?
