Odd that a person of supposed faith in Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour, would proffer money to a cult that espouses hatred and intolerance.
Indeed. I've heard of supposed Christians who have proffered money to the Roman institution, and I find that very odd.
This church is dedicated to preaching True Christianity™ and the King James Bible exactly as they are, with no alterations to make them more politically correct for modern liberals. If you think that we've misquoted or twisted Scripture or quoted any verse out of context, please explain in detail how we've done so. Otherwise, if what you read on this site offends you, then you're offended by Almighty God and His Word, not by us.
And NO, I don't perform weddings. Our church does not recognize same-sex marriages, either.
Have you told the rest of the global Episcopgaylian community about this?
O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it--for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.
God being truth, justice, goodness, beauty, power, and life, man is falsehood, iniquity, evil, ugliness, impotence, and death. God being master, man is the slave. Incapable of finding justice, truth, and eternal life by his own effort, he can attain them only through a divine revelation... he who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter, but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Joshua J. Brooks, student body president of the senior Ex-Negro Academy, and valedictorian of the class of 2007.
Praise the Lord! It always make me happy to see a nigra (ex) who have overcame his natural urges to rape white ladies and who have chose to come to the LORD instead! I noticeded thatchoo haves some pretty thin eyebrows. One o' my boys haves that same problem (apparently, this be a problem fo' a lotta nigra males), so I had put some o' that rogaine stuff on his eyebrows and it workeded like a charm! Thickened 'em right up! I highly recommends it if you doesn't want folks spreadin' rumors thatchoo is a eyebrow pluckedin' homer.

To be serious, Joshua, yes I am an Episcopalian and a Lay Eucharistic Minister, licensed by the Bishop to give Holy Communion at the altar with the ordained clergy.
~1 Timothy 2: 11-12~ Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
I take it you don't teach, nor tell men what to do, but keep silent during services? What is the point in your being a "minister" considering the limited role that women can play in church service?

It seems our Lord Jesus Christ has helped you pass the paper bag test, Mr. Brooks. Congratulations and welcome!
I always wondered about that test. Seemed to dictate which housing facilities you stayed in. Everyone in our dormitory was fairly light in complexion. All the brown skinned students were sent to another school house all together. I believe they had a different curriculum than we did. After that first day when we were sorted out I never saw the very dark skinned students ever again.

Rogaine?... umm, ok...
I had no idea that having thin eyebrows was a homosexual trend.

No, we don't tell men what to do, Joshua. We don't have to. It is not that women are limited. Each vested person of the altar party has a role to play, a specific function during the Eucharist. It's a matter of clergy (ordained priests) and ministers; the priests tell the ministers what to do; our functions have nothing to do with gender.
Go to my post (#12) earlier in this thread.

She's an Anglican't. The only things she can do are pray to the Queen of England and pronounce sodomite couples legally wedded in the eyes of the Supreme Court. She has to pay us $50 a month to keep us from banning her.
Praise Brother Temperance! These "Anglicant's" just can't seem to make peace with the pope, start kissing his ring again, and just admit that they are really cathylicks. They still claim they have Apostolic Succession, still maintain the liturgy and all those homer vestments, and rejoice in all that monochromatic medieval music. Their so-called church got started because King Henry VIII wanted to wander around with his tallywhacker. Let's face it, they are going to have to do something soon. When the current Queen dies, the next in line will be that inbred imbecile wanker, Prince Charles. Eventually they will all be swearing their oaths of allegiance and canonical obedience to his highnesses' wandering tallywhacker, all in honor of their founder Henry VIII.
Hell's foundations quiver at the shout of praise; brothers, lift your voices, loud your anthems raise.

Finally someone understands what I've been talking about, this is absolutely correct, we are catholic, Mr. William JB!
The word catholic means universal.
We (USA Episco) are not under the Queen or the Archbishop of Canterbury, we have our own church democratic law, and our own elected presiding Bishop.
That's it.
