Sex and the Schism

Orthodoxy creates delightful conniptions, especially among the 51 flavors of Christianity. In this case, it's overreaction by conservative Anglicans to modernity. The newest splinter group is the Fellowship of Confessing Anglicans which has taken umbrage with the U.S. and Canadian churches for preaching a "false gospel" and promises to regress to the 1662 Book of Common Prayer. This comes even as American congregations grapple with the "be fruitful and multiply" clauses of holy writ. American groups are ramping up the whoopee in their churches that includes a 30-Day Sex Challenge. It's probably just as well, with these kind of schisms, they'll have to fill the pews somehow.
