ANGLICANS: THIS TIME THE RATS STAY ON BOARD ...

... and the passengers flee the ship.

Nigeria’s Anglican Church has altered its constitution to formalize the rift between itself and English and North American congregations which tolerate homosexuality, its bishops said in a statement.

Kudos to this brand of Christian faith.

The statement called on Anglicans “to stand up in defense of New Testament Christianity, as opposed to the revisionist theology of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America, the Church of Canada and the Church of England.”

With about 17 million faithful, Nigerian church is the biggest in the communion; the conservative views of its followers reflect those of churchgoers in Africa, Asia, and Latin America, or what they call "the global South."
