It’s good to see that my brother’s story has been picked up around the Net. Katie Sherrod backgrounds it here, and Father Jake picks it up here. Bishop Iker is getting quite a lot of “fan mail,” according to Stand Firm, which also carries a long piece by Fr. Matt Kennedy disputing Jerry Brower’s “conservative” stand against the proposed schism in Pittsburgh.
Meanwhile, as U. S. Catholic Bishops call for a “responsible transition” in Iraq, as noted at TitusOneNine, the Province of Nigeria prays officially in “opposition to all unbiblical acts in the world.” Fr. Mark Harris has the Nigeria story and some good commentary. Looks like the “world” is pretty much the same as yesterday.
Back to Fort Worth, epiScope references this story about Bishop Iker’s response to the Presiding Bishop, noting that “Episcopalians are among several denominations struggling to agree on what the Bible says about gender and sexuality.” Struggling to disagree would say it better.
