					<description><![CDATA[I think what the right wing desires is that Rowan Williams would allow the creation of a second anglican church in the US which could be rightwing. But given Episcopal polity and given Williams own leanings, I have a hard time thinking that he&#039;s going to allow for such a thing. The reason I don&#039;t think your scenario is as plausible is that the majority of Episcopalians, bishops, dioceses are decidely liberal or moderate. So if there is any leaving of the church, it&#039;d be the right wing. But how Williams is able to at least prevent the situation of other countries not recognizing the US church is a tough question. Not sure how he&#039;ll respond.

But I do like the United Church of Canada creed. And there is some plausibility to the idea of a United sort of church, especially with the Disciples and the UCC. The old idea of a federation of liberal churches, that many Unitarians and Universalists circulated in the early part of the 20th century might have a chance.

On a side note, blogger.com won&#039;t let me post my posts anymore. There&#039;s some technical difficulty and so I&#039;ve decided to jump ship. I&#039;m now located at
