Re: Chutzpah   [Mark Steyn]

Mark, what's interesting about the Episcopal breakaway faction in the US is the indestructible assumption of the Presiding Bishop and her colleagues that they are the mainstream and the inevitable progressive future, and that the Nigerian bishops are the fringe and the doomed reactionary past. On any Sunday morning, there are more Anglicans in the pews in Nigeria than in the United Kingdom, the United States and Canada combined. So much for head office.

If the Anglican Communion has a future, it won't be thanks to Bishop Katharine Jefforts Schori and the predictably reductive preoccupations of her ministry.
