Anyway, as someone who is still quite new to TEC, after having spent over 40 years in the Fundamentalist church, I see that same self-destructive pettiness at work among the ones who seem committed to breaking away and forming their Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03320032373308927658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21609676.post-1155179674485877892006-08-09T20:14:00.000-07:002006-08-09T20:14:00.000-07:00Anon, correct me if I'm wrong, but I doubt that an...Anon, correct me if I'm wrong, but I doubt that any one asked Jeffrey John about his sex life before he was nominated for bishop. Wasn't it a "don't ask, don't tell" situation? The C of E hasn't seemed so interested in what people (even its clerics) do in bed until fairly recently.
