Catholic Monkeys and Gay Bishops, oh my!

Anglican Church Asks U.S., Canada to Leave

Ok, there was simply no way for me to read through this article and not point out this choice phraseology. A quick survey of those presently chatting on BC’s tagger (both of them) confirms that the term “Anglican primate” must refer to Catholic monkeys. We all had a chuckle.

LONDON — Anglican primates agreed Thursday that the U.S. Episcopal Church and the Anglican Church of Canada would withdraw from a key body of the global Anglican Communion after failing to overcome internal church disagreements about the election of a gay bishop in the United States and the blessing of same-sex unions there and in Canada.

I haven’t a care in the world about the Catholic church’s stance on homesexuality, but given the current state of JPII’s gang, isn’t “gay bishop” somewhat repetitively redundant?
