One thing about modern American Protestantism is that denominational lines often have little to do with beliefs at this point, so you get orphaned congregations and institutional leadership with wildly different views. Non
sola scriptura (or High Church Anglicanism) Protestantism seems vague to the point of lukewarmness. If the denomination's teachings don't come from Tradition, scripture, or a magisterium, then where do they come from?
I can be quite certain that if my pastor came out of the closet and announced he had a male lover, he'd be sacked immediately (maybe other dioceses would be too incompetent to do anything, but I have no doubt about the Diocese of Madison
). Undoubtedly there would be people who are angry, but the Church should follow its own teachings. It almost seems too obvious to be said.
