I do think TEC is still a church - just one in very bad shape - much like the Church before Francis or Dominic - intellicutaly lazy, adicted to secular power and taking its queues from the secular world.

That is part of what I am trying to do in my little neck of the woods - be that prophet that calls the Church back to her Covenant.YBIC,Phil Snyder
