Remember the post a couple of weeks ago on how the Vatican warned that consecrating a female as a bishop would be the final breaking point in strained relations with the Episcopal church? Well, apparently, it’s happened…there’s a new leader of the Episcopal church in the US…and it’s a she. Fine, they can do what they want…but the new leader has stated homosexuality is not a sin and that some people are created to love members of the same gender.

Interesting, because I posted a little while ago on how the Catholic Church also says that homosexuality is not a sin…that an orientation is not a sin, but that rather choosing not to follow the Church’s and God’s call to chastity is where the sin is – regardless of orientation. But somehow I don’t think that’s what this hypenated lady meant. Check out this quote:

“The Bible has a great deal to teach us about how to live as human beings. The Bible does not have so much to teach us about what sorts of food to eat, what sorts of clothes to wear — there are rules in the Bible about those that we don’t observe today,” she said.

So choosing to dismantle and bastardize the procreative act created by God specifically to build unity in a marriage and to bring new Christians into the world is on par with choosing not to be Kosher (which is in the Old Testament and therefore doesn’t apply to those of us living in the New Covenant) or to wear and not wear specific clothes. Wow.
