- Notes
- "Now that the U.S. Episcopalian church has consecrated a second homosexual bishop, can we hope our House of Bishops will clearly distinguish Canadian Anglicanism from U.S. Anglicanism ? Bishops committed to a specific cause are limited. They use the office to promote the cause of one constituency in the church. They are not able to minister to members of other constituencies. Neither are they free in their minds, free to think for the good of the whole church. Jesus said: 'No one can serve two Masters' (Matt. 6.24). It follows, an activist bishop cannot serve two theologies, or two causes, at the same time." [Text of entire article.]
