Reductionism is rampant amongst nominal Christians. You still an Episcopalian?

When asked, I am Roman, but I’m also at home in Episcopal churches because they’re a bit ahead of Rome theologically and socially.

Presumably the same as you.

Being pro L***Q only says the Episcopal Church is anathema just as you are in your present state.

Hahaha…. You’re just a constipated old dinosaur who thinks things were better when burning at the stake was the fate of anyone who questioned your bizarre version of religion.

And you're an old wortheless, worn-out derelict homosexual, hoarding his inexhaustible supply of those relatively new .39 cent plastic anus' purchased at CVS to replace the worn out bum on sodomites.
Do we continue with the ad hominems?
My faith is best described as that faith once delivered by Christ to His Apostles to last for all times. Nothing added, nothing taken away. Your faith is inextricably connected to anyone that will justify your perverted sexuality, PECUSA.

Quote Jesus: "laying with the same sex": Is An A*********n! [ paraphrased}...Look it up!
Where do *gay, & *sex abusers in the Catholic Church go to confess?
Where is compensation for the Victims? [ comes from tithing?]
what happens to those that continue to violate the tenets of the Catholic Church...even going to confession, & "atoning", for those sins?
How does this Pope, "pardon", the guilty? Who makes them "atone", for heinous sexual sins?
Do the "managers"...simply re-assign these violators to "another parish", to continue their t***sgressions?
I used to be a "practicing Catholic"...Now...I am Lutheran! Just can't abide the Hypocrisy, & rampant sinning!
Where does the 'Pope", get off changing "radically" these Tenets, offered by Jesus?

Protestants have the same sex scandals, Scouts were far worse than religious organizations. . Anywhere there are children predators lurk. Did the acceptance of the L***Q agenda by government exacerbate the surge?
In answer to your question: sinners, regardless of their sin, in the RC & Orthodox confess to a priest who acknowledges that they too are a sinner. Lutheran confession (in the same manner as confession in the Catholic Church)Â can be done in the church chancel with the penitent kneeling at the altar rail and the pastor sitting in front of them, in the privacy of the pastor's office, or sometimes in a confessional.
You sound like you might not want a p*******e forgiven, or an L***Q or one involved in a******n?
The same concerns you have with the RC Church apply equally to Lutherans and every other Religious organization.

Please don’t try to minimize the a*********ns that are happening in the Catholic community by saying that it’s other places too. That doesn’t make it any less of the devil.
Where DO predator priests go?
The Christian believer is a repent sinner who has been "imputed," not "infused," with the Righteousness of the God-Man Jesus Christ, the "I Am" of the Scriptures, and, the Second Person of the Triune God. Believe it or not.

Agreed, my friend. Church (any Christian church) was never intended to be a country clubs for saints. Churches are where penitent sinners go to learn how to become more Christlike. It does not matter if I confess my sins to God through direct prayer, or through a pastor, or through a priest. It does not matter when or where I confess. What matters is that I DO confess them, and truly repent, and begin to follow Jesus as closely as I am able. A Christian NEVER stops struggling against sin in his life.
It is not my place to judge, but i DO question the Christianity of churches or individuals who rationalize away the clear sin in their lives, and do not struggle against it. "God will understand and will not condemn" is only half right. God DOES understands, and loves in spite of His understanding, but He will NOT accept known sin in His presence.
To accept unrepentant sin in our life is to choose eternity separated from God.
