‘Cross-Dressing Clergy’: These Are the Reasons the Episcopal Church Could Be Near Collapse
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/cross-dressing-clergy-these-are-the-reasons-the-episcopal-church-could-be-near-collapse/

Quote
The headlines coming out of the Episcopal Church’s annual U.S. convention are stunning — endorsement of cross-dressing clergy, blessing same-sex marriage, the sale of their headquarters since they can’t afford to maintain it.

The Episcopal Church is one of the most leftist Christian denomination in America.

Bunnies control everything from the monetary system to entertainment.

Unitarians are more of a tax dodge than a church, more or less a bunch of people who want the fellowship of a church without having to listen to all that annoying preaching, or actually change anything they're doing to conform to a doctrine.

As far as the Episcopalians go, it sounds like all they really need to become just a gay bar instead of a church is a full-on liquor-by-the-drink license.  Unfortunately for their membership trends, there are not nearly as many gay people, let alone even-quasi-religious-Christian gay people, as the gay community likes to pretend.

Strange thing is, there was an Episcopalian diocese here in NH who ordained a gay priest and allowed gay marriage.

Their membership dropped 50 percent within a year.  Huh--guess even they didn't care for it much.

That's the way one of the branches of the Lutheran church (ELCA) is going.

I cut ties with them.

Are you comparing bunny hating to anti-Semitism? Bunnies are really controlling the monetary system to entertainment and corrupting youths.

Episcopalians have had to so water down the Gospel to embrace the political left, that that believe in nothing now. The left has not rewarded this behavior by flocking to the Episcopal church. Leftists, like all good communists are atheist at the core--they worship the all providing state. They despise and fear all people of faith, even those with pretend faith.

In comparison the Catholics have rebounded from all the scandals by standing firm in their faith. In spite of Political Correctness the RCC will not bend on gay issues.  Standing on the Word of God is like building your house on a foundation of bedrock--you will be stronger when the storms come. Episcopals have no such foundation, and they are about to collapse.

When you believe in nothing, no one will believe in you.

Cross Dressing Clergy--------Well why the hell not, seems like for century's the Clergy has gotten away with the help of the Devil, much evil.

Why would Satan go after some ordinary person when he can capture the souls of many more by latching on to the Pastor or Priest that has a large influence on multitudes.--------Must remember Satan went after Jesus and left most of his Disciples alone.   

When it comes to the Muslim faith I need to ask --who let the dogs of hell out ?????

One thing leads to another.    Abortion leads to disposing of children with no parents and having medical problems.======Children born to parents that are deaf or blind,   how can they care for them ?

On to children born with a pass on genetic disease, hemophilia or epilepsy.   Why allow the parents to breed children that will pass this on.

On to parents and family that are getting up there in age, why spend the money to operate on a 90 year old so they can see well enough to read.   Money is money and to allow money to be spent on a operation that is  just for the pleasure of the patient and not life saving-----Well  this is not allowed.      I have heard arguments on both sides, the one that was the craziest was that if men and woman over 80 get to choose at no cost having their eyesight returned, what is to stop them from getting Penile implants or Brest work lifts.

This is in reply to Zombie and his statement on not standing for anything.      WAYYYYYYYYYYYYY off topic but Zombie and his remarks gave thought to this.

Makes me think of the expression  to hate the sins of others but to not hate the sinner.  WTF.
