The Episcopal Diocese of Fort Worth on Saturday became the fourth U.S. diocese to change its constitution to pledge allegiance to the Anglican Communion, not the Episcopal Church.

This despite the objections and warning of ECUSA’s Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori.

Bishop Jack Iker of Fort Worth said “She has no authority to bring Fort Worth into line with the mandates of the s0-called ‘national church.’ There is no such thing as the ‘national church.’ We are a confederation of dioceses, related to each other by our participation in the General Convention.”

Hmm…a “confederation.” Methinks I’ve heard this argument before.
