I like the "good old days" when people spoke to each other (even with heat) than all this processing (like bologna and american cheese).

Only anyone who submits their name to it should be permanently barred from election as a bishop.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11145001641312329246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34346296.post-61052398110062497552017-03-14T21:28:16.450-04:002017-03-14T21:28:16.450-04:00Am interested in the Task Force Report.

Our assisting bishop described the Task Force during her episcopal visit to the parish. But "diversity" will certainly focus on gender and race -- not on theology. Any pool of episcopal candidates will be overwhelmingly liberal, and they will also be "climbers." I have known more than my share of episcopal clergy in my 50+ years in the outfit, and they seem to fit into 2 categories: those on the climb, who are politicking and moving up, and those who are natural pastors and pleased to remain parish clergy, who see episcopal office as a burden and a chore, and would never submit their name to an episcopal search function. I much prefer the second group. Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09959120983370382858noreply@blogger.com
