Church that split off over gays can't keep property


More on the California Supreme Court decision- (MSNBC)

A breakaway parish that left its parent church because of differences over doctrine and homosexuality can’t take its seaside place of worship with it, the California Supreme Court ruled today.

The justices sided with the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles and the national Episcopal Church in the clash with St. James Anglican Church in Newport Beach. The decision is expected to affect other rebel parishes in Long Beach, North Hollywood and La Crescenta, not to mention wholly separate court cases involving disputes over religious property.
