THE EPISCOPAL DIVINITY SCHOOL ANNOUNCED

That this year's honorary degree recipients include the Primate of the Anglican Church of Canada Michael Peers and the new homoerotic Bishop of New Hampshire V. Gene Robinson. Peers will be the Commencement Speaker.

Peers, who recently retired as Primate will, according to the PR puffery bring his special concern to encourage greater inclusiveness in the life of the church and to address major issues facing Canada and the world from a Christian perspective.

Get this. He was Primate from 1986-2004 and during that time the Canadian Church has been dropping like a stone. It has been declining steadily since the 70s and this has been well documented by church historian Marney Patterson in his book: SUICIDE, The Decline and Fall of the Anglican Church of Canada.

In 1990 the church had 812,962 members, in 1995 it had dropped to 740, 262, by 2000 the figure was down to 2000 650, 977. There has been no census since then, but one expert suggested that Canadian Anglicanism could now be well below 600,000. That's the legacy of Peer's doctrine of inclusion.

Robinson has become the new darling of sexual revisionist agit prop, and the only issue now is whether the University of the South at Sewanee will also give him an honorary doctorate. Being anal is one thing, being anointed with honorary doctorates for having anal sex is quite another matter altogether.
