From the NYTimes article: ''In a report issued in London, the commission asked the Episcopal Church to apologize for causing pain and division in the global Anglican Communion, the second-largest church body in the world, with 77 million members in 164 countries.''
One cannot cause pain to an institution. Institutions per se have no feelings, and no morality, they're all amoral. The pain and division is political correctness carried to the extreme. If pain and division actually exist, as cited, that's _good_. Some portion of the second largest church body must be in agreement with the critics.

Off topic but I'll post it anyway. A coinage I think I first saw a few days ago on NYTimes.com, ''reality-based.'' As applied to W's ''faith-based'' foreign policy.
''Reality-based,'' here: http://www.nytimes.com/2004/10/17/magazine/17BUSH.html (NYTimes registration required) ''In a disturbing article in last Sunday's New York Times Magazine, the writer Ron Suskind told of a meeting he'd had with a senior adviser to the president. The White House at the time was unhappy about an article Mr. Suskind had written.
According to Mr. Suskind, "The aide said that guys like me were 'in what we call the reality-based community,' which he defined as people who 'believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality.' " The aide told Mr. Suskind, "That's not the way the world really works anymore. We're an empire now, and when we act we create our own reality."
