This could be big–the bishops, after slightly amending the resolution that would open all orders of the Episcopal church to all the baptized (read:  let partnered GLBT people become bishops), passed the resolution by a resounding 99-45-2!!!!!!

HUZZZAH AGAIN!

Because they amended it, the House of Deputies must vote on it and pass it, but if they do that (probably tomorrow), it will be a  done deal!

But I’m not counting that chicken.  What will the opposition do overnight to derail justice?  Will it stop forward motion like it did three years ago?  As thrilled as I am about the bishops, it ain’t over ’til it’s over and it ain’t over yet . . .
