By Eric Metaxas , Christian Post Guest Columnist July 23, 2012|9:14 am In 2006, the Episcopal Church's presiding bishop, Katherine Jefferts Schori, told the New York Times that Episcopalians were not interested in "replenishing their ranks by having children." Instead, the church "[encouraged] people to pay attention to the stewardship of the earth and not use more than their portion."

The Episcopal Church, you see, is in a statistical free-fall. Read more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the Episcopals connection with Yale University; home of Skull & Bones Society. Besides abortion and sex education the U.N. also called for the promotion of homosexuaty to slow the world's population growth. The Toynbee-Ikeda Dialogue which postulates how to best govern the world also calls for homosexuality to be promoted while at the same time blaming Judeo-Christians for the world's problems.
