VirtueOnline - Episcopal Priest Praises Mohammed, Vishnu, Buddha, Confucius in Liturgy

VirtueOnline - News - Exclusives - Episcopal Priest Praises Mohammed, Vishnu, Buddha, Confucius in Liturgy It's been a little while since we've had a one of those stunning wacky theological statements / incidents from the Episcopal Church. Here is a new one: an Arkansas priest used a liturgy for All Saints Sunday, Nov 1 to praise Buddhist saints, Hindu saints, saints of the Koran, native people saints, Chinese (eastern religious) saints, and eventually some Christian ones also. When questioned about this seemingly odd liturgical rite for a Christian church and getting it approved by his Bishop the priest said, "I have never thought of sending it to the bishop for his approval or non- approval. I saw no reason to send it to him; it is not contrary to our beliefs."
