It is amazing and informative that this panel of experts omitted from its list of putatively “Educational Resources” any reference to Dr. Robert Gagnon’s work, The Bible and Homosexual Practice: Texts and Hermeneutics (Nashville: Abingdon, 2001). Perhaps it was because Gagnon is not expressly “Episcopal/Anglican,” but these “resources” seem somewhat weighted to support the revisionist view.
“Since the issuing of the Windsor Report (2004), the Diocese of Virginia has observed the three moratoria. We recognize that to continue to do so will be painful and difficult for some members of the Diocese. Yet we urge that we continue to do so, understanding that action to be in conformity with the charge from the Bishop, the statements of the 2006 General Convention, and the urging of the four instruments of communion of the Anglican Communion.10” p.13
I suppose they are thankful there was no “moratoria” on lawsuits.
This exceeds even statistics in the axiom about lies, damn lies, and statistics! Truthiness, the gospel of the Diocese of VA.
