I'll have to quote Sheed to you here (your fault, ya know?):<br /><br />Speaking of the successors of Peter ((bishops and priests)<br /><br />We rejoice in the evidently holy, we may be sad at others. But the power in which, by which we live is never theirs. It is always Christ's. It is Christ we join when we join the Church, not the men who at any given moment direct it here upon earth. The gifts come to us through them: but always from Him.<br />p 139 - Theology for BeginnersAdriennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01562944653624224107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3407817413258733695.post-82201519405674690752020-08-23T23:00:42.232-07:002020-08-23T23:00:42.232-07:00There too?

You think the ‘paedo’ problems the RC church had were inherent, or were the result of allowing, encouraging, gay priests (notice not one of those abuses involved girls)?<br /><br />What can be done about it? I have no idea, but I left the Anglican community (I only ended up there because … military) years ago, returning to my (familial) roots of Nonconformist ‘Welsh Chapel’ and The Presbyterian Church of Wales (where you still get the ‘fire and brimstone’, ‘spittle flying’ fervour and also, not incidentally packed attendances, whereas the average Anglican service is lucky to see a handful, not surprisingly).<br /><br />I suspect (know) that part of the growth of gaia, global warming, antifa, etc. (not to mention drugs/drink problems, suicides and criminality) is precisely due to the deliberate destruction of the church. People left bereft, searching for something, anything to believe in (G. K. was right all along).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3407817413258733695.post-867668160557882122020-08-23T20:36:06.245-07:002020-08-23T20:36:06.245-07:00These folks who preach the doctrines of marxism an...These folks who preach the doctrines of marxism and collectivism, occasionally mingled with scripture, are a big part of the problem. I realize that reverends like Sharpton and Jessie Jackson, and Jeremiah Wright have an appeal to the progressive people who dump a lot of cash into the plate in exchange for them stirring up inner city people. But I suspect that the judgement may be harsh. <br /><br />(don't fear the reaper, LSP) LLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05538854359365988863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3407817413258733695.post-41803358378769844092020-08-23T20:07:18.879-07:002020-08-23T20:07:18.879-07:00Somehow, I'm not surprised.

I have contended for quite a long time that ACNA stayed in ECUSA way too long, and when they left, they brought the virus with them.<br /><br />Let me mention a story told to me by a Continuing Anglican Archbishop quite a few years ago, well before I was ordained. He explained that during the Consecration of a new bishop, when the three consecrators place their hands on the heard of the new bishop, what they are really doing is removing his backbone.<br /><br />Fr.
