A Good Laugh From The Diocese Of Pittsburgh



"Vote for it" is the title of the video.

It seems that I am now on BabyBlue's YouTube email subscription list. How that came to be, I don't know.

The diocesan convention of the Episcopal Diocese of Pittsburgh is meeting this weekend. They will decide whether to leave the Episcopal Church and join the Diocese of the Southern Cone. Pray for the Episcopal Diocese of Pittsburgh. The Lead at the Episcopal Café will update as they get information.

Regarding the video: I am not laughing. Why are they laughing?

UPDATE: According to The Lead, the convention voted to leave the Episcopal Church.

    What did he say that was so funny? I can't bear to play it again and strain my ears to listen. And, that's definitely Minns on the right, but who are the other two?

    Elizabeth, I believe he said, "Vote for it." I edited the post to add the title of the video, which does not show up here, but which you can see at YouTube.

    Yes, it's definitely Minns. Funny how he gets around. Sort of a gadfly, no?

    I doubt they'll do that, DP.

    Vote for it? Right. I'm thinking it was the Archbishop of the Coneheads, himself. Incredible.

    Mark Harris called Robert Duncan the Bishop of Leaving.

    And I, dear friends, am the Bishop of Staying... It's funny how they feel that the diocese exists independent of the national church, as if they created themselves and ordained their bishop. Oh well, the Real Diocese of Pittsburgh is in good hands, and many good people will stay and we will be a faithful and strong diocese again, following where God calls us, to work for the kingdom of God.

    I'm grateful for you, +Clumber, the Bishop of Staying, the one true bishop of the Real Diocese of Pittsburgh. The faithful of the diocese are, indeed, in good hands.
