BREAKING: South Carolina Walks Out of TEC General Convention

Given the demonstrated vindictiveness of --Schori and company, this is a principled act of courage.

The delegation released the following statement:

Due to the actions of General Convention, the South Carolina Deputation has concluded that we cannot continue with business as usual. We all agree that we cannot and will not remain on the floor of the House and act as if all is normal. John Burwell and Lonnie Hamilton have agreed to remain at Convention to monitor further developments and by their presence demonstrate that our action is not to be construed as a departure from the Episcopal Church. Please pray for those of us who will be traveling early and for those who remain.

The Bishop of South Carolina is expected to release a statement shortly.
