A Revolting Christian is a blog by an Episcopal Campus Minister who wants to see the church reject a few of its stupider notions and maybe show the world a better way to act. Join me as we look honestly at ourselves and show that Christians are not the two dimensional flatheads we sometimes act like. I invite you to join me in looking at new ways of doing things rather than just rehashing what's wrong.

General Convention, day 6 addendum
Okay, so the protesters have gotten a little more specific in their signs. But you should also know that Integrity pulled out the rainbow flags and flew them in front of them. Don't get into verbal exchanges with folks like this. That is what they want. Provide an alternative response like the flags.
This was removed from the last report because apparently it was too large.
One last thing. We had visits in the House of Deputies from official representatives of The Anglican Churches in South Africa, Brazil, Kenya, New Zealand and Canada. They urged us to do what we need to do and know that we are still welcome. (The New Zealand one also gave us a great caution about appropriating the word Ubunto too easily without necessarily knowing what it means!) Hopefully, this made the official web posts. I know that Barbara Harris' Integrity Eucharist did.
