This liberal Protestant rag lets +Jon Bruno of LA have the last word.  Namely, he downplayed the dispute and opined that Glasspool’s election would stir “only a little bit of a wave.”  No sir, nothing provocative here, he wants to say.  No big deal at all.  TEC has moved on…

Alas, there is some measure of truth to that, in the sense that hardly anyone who knows anything about the trials and tribulations of Anglicanism over the last decade is likely to be surprised by the election of a second “openly gay” bishop in TEC.  It was only a matter of time until it happened.

But it’s still scandalous, of course, and totally unacceptable.  It only shows that +Bruno [Edited] is so fanatically committed to his pro-gay ideology that he’s become blind to the consequences of his fateful, ungodly choices (or he’s willfully ignoring them).  But that’s what persisting in sin does.  It hardens the heart, causes the conscience to become calloused, and makes you blind to your sin, and ever less willing to repent.

since the Episcopal Church in July opened all levels of church service to gays and lesbians in committed relationships

At best, this is misleading.

[Edited]  Has he “persisted in sin”, as claimed?  Or is this a way of saying that one disagrees with his position on the appropriateness of elevating the Rev. Glasspool to the epsicopacy?
