US’s ‘declaration of war’

http://www.religiousintelligence.co.uk/news/?NewsID=635

[Religiou Intelligence] 23 Mar 2007--The Episcopal Church’s refusal to accept the authority of a pastoral council proposed by the Primates has been described as a ‘declaration of war’ by a campaign group.

The Rev Dr Chris Sugden, executive secretary of the evangelical Anglican Mainstream group, said he was not surprised by the latest development, which has effectively brought the Primates September 30 deadline forward by six months. The US House of Bishops this week passed a resolution saying they could not accede to the demands of the Primates’ communiqué after their five-day meeting near Houston.
