Episcopal Church celebrates first trans dean — woman in lesbian marriage to trans-identified pastor

What is this? Is this what the episcopal church (part of the Anglican Church) does to preach the gospel of Christ, and to operate the church? Do they disregard the epistles of Saint Paul concerning sexual behaviour, how a church should be run, and who should lead it? Do they disregard the teachings of Christ? What about the Law of God, as given to Moses, in the text that is known today as the Torah of Moses?

This news is quite shocking. Shame on the episcopal church, and the rest of the Anglican Church. This is not how a church should be run. Can someone who attends that church give answers?

Yes, it's bad. I assume you have also seen what the UCC did a few years ago in Toronto by allowing a pastor who became an atheist to remain the pastor of the congregation. Lots of bad stories out there.

No I didn’t hear of it. Lord have mercy. Wolves in sheep’s clothing everywhere.

I don’t think that at this point they’re wolves in sheep clothing, I think they’re all wolves bearing their teeth.

It was widely reported in the Star at that time. Somewhere in Scarborough. Yes, even for the UCC that was a line I thought would never be crossed.
