12 THE LIV ING CHURCH· JUNE 18. 2006 EDITORIALS

The 'Schismatic'Label As deputies and bishops gathered in Columbus, Ohio, for the 75th Gen­ eral Convention, it was distressing to note how much the word "schism" has entered into the vocabularies of Episcopalians. Those who espouse liberal or progressive theological views have been known to accuse per­ sons who threaten to separate from the Episcopal Church as schismat­ ics. And those on the conservative or traditional end of the spectrum It is worrisometo learn sometimes refer to those who support and participated in the consecra­ tion of Bishop V. Gene Robinson in New Hampshire as schismatics. that thereare members Name calling, of course , has been one of the unfortunate results of the current impasse in the Episcopal Church , but it ought to be pointed out of organizationson both that using schism and its derivatives is a serious charge . Using the definition of "schism" as found in The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church - "formal and willful separation from the unity of sidesof the dividewho the Church" - one can understand that such accusations should not be taken lightly. It would seem that such charges are frequently based on wouldregard themselves the credentials of others rather than actions that have taken place. For example, members of the Anglican Communion Network are sometimes as the true Anglicans. accused of being schismatic even though that organization is at this writ­ ing still part of the Episcopal Church. Conversely, people who supported the decisions on issues of sexuality rendered by General Convention in 2003 also have been called schismatic by those who belong to some con­ servative organizations, even though there has been no separation. It is worrisome to learn that there are members of organizations on both sides of the divide who would regard themselves as the true Angli­ cans. It is laudable that members of such groups are anxious to band with and worship with other like-minded Christians . But when their strategy involves referring to those who do not agree with them as schis­ matics, we have a problem. We hope that during General Convention, and on the days which follow, that Episcopalians will refrain from call­ ing each other schismatics unless a formal separation takes place. There is always a possibility that those who accuse others of being schismatics may be schismatics themselves.

ChurchLife in the Summer Many of us have been er\joying summer weather for several weeks, even though the true arrival of this welcome season isn't until June 21. Others greet June as the long-awaited arrival of warmer weather and a chance to participate in outdoor activities . Still others will look at sum­ mer as a chance to slow down from our hectic pace of life, especially in our churches. Most of our congregations will have a reduction of activi­ ties in summer, with the exception of those in or near resort communities. Summertime in our churches need not be a time of vacation. The choir may be gone, Sunday school in recess, and some traveling parishioners missing, but the praise and worship of God continues Sunday after Sun­ day throughout the year. We would resp ectfully remind our readers to keep up their pledges in the summer, for the expenses of a church - stipends, utilities , and other assorted bills - do not go on a holiday. For those who will be traveling this summer , plan to attend church wherever you may be. Many of our readers have report ed positive expe­ riences when visiting congregations far from home during the summer. To all our subscribers, we extend best wishes for a refreshing summer.
