The Episocopalian church where I live got angry that the overall US Episcopalian trend is toward equality and egalitarianism and in protest of the making of qualified people bishops while women or queer, they're no longer Episcopal. They split with the USEC communion and so the local diocese is officially Anglican with all the anti-woman, anti-queer trappings of the highest highest old conservative recalcitrant stalwarts in the UK, but even more like the highly culturally conservative bishops of Africa.
So I'm not at all convinced that CoE/Anglican/Episcopalianism is any guarantee of a progressive happy live and let live form of Christianity at all.
