The only prayer I'm likely to make in response to this is a prayer of thanks that I'm not a Scottish Episcopalian. (With perhaps a footnote hoping that George grows up to be heterosexual -- and a better man than his grandfather, Prince Chuck.)

That this sicko clergyman - a provost, no less - has a following at all does NOT speak well for the congregation attending services at St. Mary’s Cathedral in Glasgow.

Mr. Holdsworth, the provost of St. Mary’s Cathedral in Glasgow, belongs to the Scottish Episcopal Church, a separate province of the Anglican Communion that voted in June to let its priests solemnize same-sex marriages.

Had to re-read the bolded bit.
