Evil "White Boys"
From Gay consecration splits church:
One of those attending [the consecration of Gene Robinson] was Barbara Harris, the minister who 14 years ago was appointed the Episcopal Church's first woman bishop to similar threats of schism. Her appointment was controversial not only because she was a woman, but also black and divorced. Although some bishops refused to recognise or sit down with her, her consecration did not ultimately cause a split.
She told the Boston Globe: "This is a power struggle as to who is going to run the church, the white boys who have always run it, or some different kinds of people. White men see their church being changed and they don't like it."
Funny. It's the Africans who seem to be objecting most to seeing their church being changed. [See African Anglican Leaders Outraged Over Gay Bishop in U.S..]

Redeemed by Our Savior, I work out my salvation with fear and trembling in Pohang, South Korea, where I live with my wife, daughter, and son and teach English at a science and technology university. Baptized a Methodist and raised a Missouri Synod Lutheran in Buffalo, NY, I spent six years as a guest of the Anglican Communion before being received by the Grace of God into the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church on the Feast of Saint Andrew, my patron, anno domini 2002.
