A NOTE TO READERS, JUNE 24



It is Sunday, June 24. Some of you readers may be wondering if I have disappeared since I have not made a posting in a week. Some of my critics wish I would "shut the ---- up" as one recently suggested. I can assure friend and foe alike I am not about to shut up or close down this blog. Over 30,000 people have clicked onto this space in the last two weeks, so I must be doing something right. I have been away on vacation but am back now and ready to go.  

While I was away two astonishing developments occurred in the history of the schism which demand attention.

 One is a new set of "Frequently Asked Questions" issued by the Lawrence diocese and posted on their website. It is an all-out attempt to falsify and de-legitimize the South Carolina Supreme Court decision. This is part of a stepped-up no-holds-barred campaign to demonize the Episcopal Church in the minds of the 13,000 communicants in the 29 parishes that have been legally returned to control of the Episcopal Church. 

The second development comes from the GAFCON meeting last week. The group issued a statement of extortion against the Anglican Communion, particularly the Archbishop of Canterbury. 

I will return soon with commentary on the two new remarkable issues at hand.
