The Presiding Bishop of The Episcopal Church says the Anglican Communion is like a bunch of teenagers growing up and finding their adult identity. "I don't have a better image for it than that," she said in an interview with David Crabtree of WRAL-TV in Raleigh, NC.
"Like teenagers, we see the Archbishop of Canterbury as the big parent in the system. I don't think that is the case. We are siblings and The Episcopal Church is the oldest of the products of the British Empire."
Asked if the family is really as solid now as it used to be, Jefferts Schori said it is "not as solid as I would like to be and won't be till the Second Coming."
