Talk:Episcopal Church

Homophobia
The idiots in my schismatic church (which allows women priests) say that the REAL reason for the split (in other Protestant churches as well) is not that gays are ruining the church, it's that CATHOLICS AND WITCHES are INFILTRATING THE CHURCH. (I can sort of understand the Catholic thing though...they try to tell us how to live our lives within Catholic standards of purity, even though we have dropped off our ideas of sex to NOT HAVING SECKS BEFORE MARRIAGE despite the studies that say it doesn't help (Christian scientists who in no way would ever alter the results for their own agenda because only the gays have one of those say otherwise) and OPPOSIN' THE GAY AGENDA.

 * The reason for the CAPSLOCK is because that's how fundies talk. See My Right Wing Dad for details. EddieMonah (talk) 04:33, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Uh, no. They do not. For ever raving foaming at the mouth fundie there is a horrifyingly calm soft spoken one. Тy talk 04:37, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Clearly you haven't seen the stuff by members of the aforementioned church. EddieMonah (talk) 07:35, 29 August 2012 (UTC)

Request removal of incorrect information
Hello. I noticed that you have an incorrect piece of information on the site, specifically this: Though in recent decades parts of the Episcopal church have been among the more socially liberal forms of Christianity, historically the episcopal church supported the eugenics movement as it moved into the United States.[5]

This is factually incorrect. The Episcopal Church had no involvement with this movement. The source linked to this claim is based on a not uncommon mistake: It links to the Methodist church. There is a type of Methodist church in the US called the Methodist Episcopal Church, but the Methodist church is not the US Episcopal church. The conflation of 'Methodist Episcopal' with 'Episcopal' is where the mistake is made at. This is the link given as a citation in the article: http://umc-gbcs.org/resolutions/repentance-for-support-of-eugenics. Notice how the link is for UMC-GBCS.org, which if you click on now is a broken link, and is redirected to this: https://www.umcjustice.org/. UMC stands for 'United Methodist Church'. Further information can be found here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methodist_Episcopal_Church.
 * Although the citation is from the Methodists, the document states that the Methodists, Presbyterians and Episcopalians as having embraced eugenics. See the revised citation that now links properly. Bongolian (talk) 18:43, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
 * This seems circular, since all (excepting 2 citations that I cannot verify) explicitly mention the Methodist churches, but as you wish.
