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.

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?
