The Curmudgeon: South Carolina A Case Study

Posted by Steve  Published in TEC/General Convention

This brilliant piece was posted by A. S. Haley on the Anglican Curmudgeon tonight.  Here’s one of my favorite clips, but read it all – it offers backstory to the climate in the Diocese of SC.

One would think that these propositions are self-evident, but not with this Presiding Bishop, who in the language of the Wild West from whence she hails, was described by Bishop Lee of Virginia, according to testimony in the Virginia litigation, as “the new sheriff in town.” Just the fact that a Presiding Bishop could mange to have her role as Chief Pastor of the Church viewed as closer to that of a “sheriff” says all that need be said about what is wrong with the current leadership of the Episcopal Church (USA).

Here’s the rest of Haley’s article, South Carolina: A Case Study in How to Tear a Church apart.
