Some Sanity In The Episcopal Church

There’s an update to the bizarre story of Ann Holmes Redding, the Episcopalian priest who wanted to simultaneously be a practicing Muslim. I originally posted on her in Episcopal Priest/Muslim: “It wasn’t about intellect.”

Bryan at Hot Air has the latest.

The Rev. Ann Holmes Redding, a local Episcopal priest who announced she is both Muslim and Christian, will not be able to serve as a priest for a year, according to her bishop.

During that year, Redding is expected to “reflect on the doctrines of the Christian faith, her vocation as a priest, and what I see as the conflicts inherent in professing both Christianity and Islam,” the Rt. Rev. Geralyn Wolf, bishop of the Diocese of Rhode Island, wrote in an e-mail to Episcopal Church leaders.

Excellent idea.
