DCNY: Thoroughly LIberal
Louie Crew has put up the votes for the two controversial resolutions at this summer's General Convention. D025 pertains to electing sexually active homosexuals to the episcopate and D056 is about same sex blessings. Crew has published data provided by the General Convention office and it enumerates that the delegation for the Diocese of Central New York voted completely for these two resolutions that the Archbishop of Canterbury cautioned the GC not to pass. The DCNY bishop, clergy delegates and lay delegates all voted for these resolutions. Delegations from other dioceses were divided, in some delegations clergy delegates differed from lay delegates, but not for the DCNY. The ABC in his reflections on GC said that pecusa is walking further away from the Anglican Communion. As a result pecusa may earn a second class status in the Anglican Communion. The DCNY delegation is a party to the possible demotion of pecusa. I thought you might like to know this.
