Given that certain African Anglican church leaders have been advocating prison sentences for merely supporting civil gay rights without a rebuke from the communion, it is about time. (There was also the poaching but that isn't so much a matter of social justice.)Erphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18037406583478493064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30648257.post-16442830857958216792009-07-14T07:21:34.551-07:002009-07-14T07:21:34.551-07:00Hey Obie,

Just as you hope that the Presbyterians soon catch up to history, I hope my ELCA does the same at their upcoming MPLS convention in August.
