Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori Is All For Local Communities?

Get Religion has a important piece here at Jefferts Schori (quietly) goes Pentecostal.

ATTENTION American Episcopals if you want to stay Anglican in the USA I would be looking elsewhere and start a legal fund too boot.

Here is my comment on the site:
“Episcopal Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori has forcefully defended her church’s embrace of gays and lesbians, and firmly rejected efforts to centralize power or police uniformity in the Anglican Communion.
Anglicans should be led by local communities rather than powerful clerics, Jefferts Schori argued in a Wednesday”


Yet she is ruling with a IRON fist in the USA Church. As one person who read this article noted she is now Our lady of Litigation.

I think that needs to be noted. In many ways for all her talk about “local Communities” she has made her position and the TEC Conference much more powerful than anything the National Catholic Bishops Conference can be. Heck I think she assumes more powers than the Pope at times.

The only reason I bring that up is I think that should be noted in articles that talk about sayings on “local communities”.
