US Presiding Bishop dismisses Gafcon conference: CEN 7.05.08 July 5, 2008

| US Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori has ridiculed the Jerusalem Declaration released by the Global Anglican Future Conference in Jerusalem. In a June 30 statement Bishop Schori said “much of the Anglican world must be lamenting the latest emission from Gafcon.”
She added that the participants in the June 21-29 held a parochial view of Anglicanism, which had “always been broader than some find comfortable.” The Gafcon statement was about power she argued, and was “merely another chapter in a centuries-old struggle for dominance by those who consider themselves the only true believers.” Read it all in The Church of England Newspaper. |

Bishop Schori said “much of the Anglican world must be lamenting the latest emission from Gafcon.” .. that is message for all people.
A lot of us are of the thinking that GAFCON did nothing…
Mostly we have a situation where the disenchanted made their already-known disenchantment more known…
All the drama for what?
