Recently, the Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal organization ordered the remnant Episcopal group to keep on suing the departing Diocese of San Joaquin in a process that has been going on since 2008 (see the story at StandFirm in Faith).
One traditionalist in the Episcopal church suggested that people be made aware that pledge dollars are going to fund these lawsuits to the tune of millions of dollars, and that this is not the "mission" of the church.
My apologies to The Police and Sting, but please keep the tune to Every Breath You Take in mind when you sing this one.
Every pledge you make
Is a dollar I'll rake
A bond of affection I'll break
Another step I'll take
Towards suing you
Every check you pay
Is another way
To prolong the game I play
To keep my sheep from going astray
I'll be suing you
O can't you see
Your church belongs to me
How my poor heart aches with every step you take
Every move you make
Every canon you break
Every smile you fake
Every bank account you stake
I'll be suing you
Since South Carolina's gone I been lost without a trace
I dream at night I can only see Mark Lawrence's face
I look around but it's the income I can't replace
I feel so cold and I long for your tax base
I keep crying baby, baby please
Every move you make
Every canon you break
Every smile you fake
Every bank account you stake
I'll be suing you
