LETTERS, Page 6Independent Episcopalians
As one who attended with pride the Episcopal Synod in Fort
Worth, I resent the use of the word rebel to describe Bishop
Clarence Pope, who refuses to recognize female Episcopal
priests (RELIGION, June 19). The true rebels are those who
"illegally" ordained women as priests in the mid-'70s and then
proceeded to rend the fabric of almost 2,000 years of faith and
tradition with other innovations.
Kathleen S. Sitz Davenport, Iowa
The Episcopal semi-schismatics seem to want to replace
Christianity with a fearful obsession based on sex-related
issues -- the ordination of women clergy, divorce, abortion and
homosexuality. How does this emphasis relate to faith in men
and women as creatures who share a transcendental dimension with
God?
David Powell Richland, Wash.
