This is long. LONG. Here, why don’t you go get a latte, while I fulminate quietly to myself. I almost missed the live webcast by the Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church, ++Katherine Jefferts Schori. Stupid time difference. Fortunately, it’s now available as a regular on-demand webcast. There are specific issues I want to hear her address, but I’m a little worried that she’s just going to offer some delicious tidbits of Anglican fudge. And now, the webcast.

Check out the list of bishops who signed a statement distancing themselves from the Lambeth statement, and especially that last name on the list. Confused? Me too.

NPR : The Episcopal Church and the Rift over Homosexuality I'm currently listening to today's Talk of the Nation, recorded earlier today. First guest: Rt. Reverend Catherine Roskam, bishop suffragan of New York. She starts off well by stating clearly that discussing the blessing of same-sex marriage is off the table. She also tries to explain how the Anglican Communion isn't really a top-down, patriarchally governed church. She stresses that there are more important issues that we ought to be facing in the Communion, such as how women are treated. Caller: Jean from Utah is an Episcopalian. Feels strongly that…
