  1. You’ve got to be kidding!
    Sent November 18th 2008

    Sent November 8th 2008

    The Anglican Neighborhood of Make-Believe The world is being told that “Bishop Robert Duncan is once again the diocesan bishop of The Episcopal Diocese of Pittsburgh.” Balderdash! There are many defects in this claim, and I have tried to set the record...

  8. Realignment Blues
    Sent October 4th 2008

    Realignment Blues I suspect that you know by now that the Pittsburgh diocese voted to “realign” today. What I have not seen reported is that the diocese distributed a new brochure at the end of the convention titled“Realignment Realities: What You Nee...

  9. Petty
    Sent October 1st 2008

    Petty Moderates and liberals—even some conservatives, in fact—have much to deplore in the way a diocese like the Episcopal Diocese of Pittsburgh has been run. Some indignities are just unnecessary and stupid, or, as I describe them in my latest blog p...
