Not really surprising, but it is depressing. More proof that all of this is being orchestrated by people who put bigotry first, religion second.

1. Fuckin' IRD needs to be taken down.

[Fenris]

2. I love how Bennet and D'Souza are involved.

You know, I don't go around telling the Catholic Church what to do, so you shouldn't be telling me how my church should be run, you fucking hypocritical gasbags.

3. What does this have to do with the Catholic Church?

Besides Anglicanism's relatively close relationship with the RCC?

[Fenris]

6. Both Bennet and D'Souza are Catholics.

I find it odd that they feel qualified to tell my church how to behave.

I didn't mean it to sound like I was railing on the Catholic Church. :hi:

4. Thanks for the info

I'd read that the nascent schism in the Episcopal Church was really really the work of a minority, and this pretty solidly confirms that.

5. and now Richard Scaife is involved in a nasty divorce ...

Low Road to Splitsville
Right-Wing Publisher's Breakup Is Super-Rich In Tawdry Details

"Remember him? The cantankerous, reclusive 75-year-old billionaire who's spent a sizable chunk of his inherited fortune bankrolling conservative causes and trying to kneecap Democrats? He's best known for funding efforts to smear then-President Bill Clinton, but more quietly he's given in excess of $300 million to right-leaning activists, watchdogs and think tanks. Atop his list of favorite donees: the family-values-focused Heritage Foundation, which has published papers with titles such as "Restoring a Culture of Marriage."

The culture of his own marriage is apparently past restoring. With the legal fight still in the weigh-in phase, the story of Scaife v. Scaife already includes a dog-snatching, an assault, a night in jail and that divorce court perennial, allegations of adultery.

Oh, and there's the money. Three words, people.

No. Pre. Nup.

Unfathomable but true, when Scaife (rhymes with safe) married his second wife, Margaret "Ritchie" Scaife, in 1991, he neglected to wall off a fortune that Forbes recently valued at $1.3 billion. This, to understate matters, is likely going to cost him, big time. As part of a temporary settlement, 60-year-old Ritchie Scaife is currently cashing an alimony check that at first glance will look like a typo: $725,000 a month. Or about $24,000 a day, seven days a week. As Richard Scaife's exasperated lawyers put it in a filing, "The temporary order produces an amount so large that just the income from it, invested at 5 percent, is greater each year than the salary of the President of the United States."

9. This says to me

that he married her not even thinking she would ever be strong enough to challenge him directly.


No prenup. What a maroon. :rofl: He deserves to lose it on grounds of general stupidity and arrogance.

[Critters2]

7. Without even looking, I'd guess it's the IRD.

I hate those people.

8. We of the TEC know that the breakaways are a hateful bunch...

and that +Duncan and Minns+ are power-hungry bigots.
