    Schism

    This is just one more reason for the Episcopal church to be glad about its impending schism from the wider Anglican Communion.

    In fact, to have any credibility in modern society, I think there is no choice for the American Episcopalians and the much more liberal Canadian Anglicans but to willingly and happily get out of the Anglican Communion now, before the officially imposed schism, and form their own, more progressive, international organization.

    One that would fight for the rights of women, and gay people, not against them.
