If this indeed is a discernment period, why has the Wood Man already announced his decision? Are they really "waiting upon the Lord" or is he not just putting in the time so that everyone will agree with his private discernment? We know the answer, of course, but the situation is troubling at best.<br /><br />The other question I would like someone (anyone!) to answer is how many of the defectors in this soap opera have or have not been raised in the Anglican tradition. Methinks that this is a converts' movement--not that I think converts to be a bad thing, but it may just be that we're observing a phenomenon of church leapers?

God isn't calling us to do the thing we thought he was, he's calling us to do the thing that we thought was abhorrent and misguided, and we're glad we did this 40-day search and come up with the hard answer.
