A Cry for Help.

Both Michael Hampson in The Guardian and Mad Priest make similar points. Any split in the Anglican Communion provides opportunities for liberals to spread the inclusive message of the Gospels. Maybe I could be a missionary to the darkest reaches of London. Wouldn't that be tough duty?

I especially like the last paragraph of Michael Hampson's article:
"The US liberals are not campaigning to destroy the church. Their church - unlike our own - is a church of the people. The ordinary scripture-reading people of the US church call their own clergy and elect their own bishops. Some of them are women. Some of them are gay. These are the people the churchgoing faithful have chosen. Long may they be faithful to their soundly biblical, soundly Christian principles."
