NAIROBI, Aug. 30 -- Two American priests were consecrated Thursday as Anglican bishops in Kenya, the latest in a string of conservative priests who are defecting to African churches in a dispute over gay clergy.People who feel that they have to hate in order to serve God should not be delivering your mail, much less seeing to your spiritual well-being.
Bill Atwood of Texas and William Murdoch of Massachusetts left the Episcopal Church -- the U.S. branch of the worldwide Anglican Communion -- because it allows the ordination of gay priests.
