Hugo Chavez Adopts Piskie Liberalism For His New National Church

Read it all.

The Bolivarian Church, which models itself on the nationalist catholic church formed in Nineteenth century Mexico that has since become the Anglican Church of Mexico, uses the Episcopal Church’s Book of Common Prayer and has adopted a liberal moral ethos, making clerical celibacy optional, permitting divorce and remarriage, and holding that homosexual conduct is not immoral.

    I saw this … I don’t even know what to make of it. Weird! I mean, should we be terribly surprised that Episcopal Church-style church could lead in such a bizarre direction?

    Well, with Fidel about to be relegated to mixing mojitos in Hell, the Left had to find a new pot-bellied tyrant to slobber over, though John Chane’s adoration of the ayatollah du jour shows promise, too, and Bob Mugabe’s the WCC’s main squeeze. It’s just a matter of time before the Presiding Plantiff makes her pilgrimage to Caracas.

    Why does anyone even bring such a sensationalist topic to a blog such as this The absurdity of giving a forum to that which should forever remain irrelevant only serves to negate any possible contribution of worth this blog might serve.

    I assure you all, no one of any consequence — be they right, left, staight or gay — will take this matter seriously. Of course, if this is really the kind of thing you want to read and discuss, there is always the National Inquirer. Certainly they must have a blog/forum.
