LIBERAL HYPOCRISY IN THE EPISCOPAL HOUSE OF BISHOPS

When Katharine Jefferts Schori, the successor to Frank Griswold, activist supporter of Gene Robinson and a campaigner for same-sex blessings was asked where she stood on the issues, she said, "Homosexuals were created by God," but when pressed about how blatantly she contradicted Scripture on Salvation, she replied: "I think, (it is) to put God in an awfully small box". Pressed on her views about the Bible she said, "The Bible was written in a very different historical context by people asking different questions." For her, the Bible no longer matters. When the church passed resolution D039 stating that sex outside of marriage was now acceptable to the church, clergy and senior leaders failed to inform their dioceses and congregations so great was the sin and even greater would have been the backlash by mostly sexually conservative Episcopalians had they known.
