Episcopal church grilled over popular thinking in Columbus
In Columbus a tri state gathering of Episcopal dissidents heard Rev. Robert Morse accuse progressives of turning the church toward popular views including the ordination of women and changes to the Book of Common Prayer. He warned that homosexual priests are entering the church and urged adherence to traditional teachings. Bishop John Krumm questioned many charges as overstated and noted the anger runs deeper than women priests.
