Personally I'm of two minds about the situation. I opposed the ordination of Bishop Robinson. But I also am opposed to outsiders trying to tell us how we should run our Church.

The fireworks are far form over. Wait and see what unfolds over the next two or three years. If the situation is not settled beforehand, the next Lambeth Confrence is liable to be a real donnybrook.
I don't think it's really a matter of outsiders telling the American church how it should be run. I think it's the rest of the Anglican Communion saying that the ECUSA is breaking with Anglican tradition and doctrine over these issues of ordination, and by extension, marriage of homosexuals.

You are so right about the even greater storm now brewing. Let us hope that no one comes armed, as Dreadlock-Ness Monster mentioned in his post!
