I am an Episcopal priest and have watched and listened with dismay at the events of this and the last General Convention. We do need some way of holding one another accountable for violations of the doctrine, discipline, and worship of the church. The mechanisms we do have are generally ignored. Thanks for summarizing much of what I have been thinking. I think you have made a very cogent statement about the problems within the Episcopal Church.

You seem awfully invested in Catholic Church's business at times, yet I haven't said anything about that. It's your business, and I don't try to guess your motives. Derek,
