The Anglican Schism That Isn't (Yet)

Why don't the "liberals" (rich, white, upper and upper-middle-class, Democrat or Labour/Lib Dem voting on the strict condition that it never actually changes anything) consecrate bishops for Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Pacific?

Remarkably holding a very high doctrine of episcopate (to which they have such privileged access) while believing in little or nothing else, they really consider the African, Asian, Latin American and Pacific bishops to have acted schismatically by consecrating bishops for North America, and so cannot have any scruples about muscling in on their territory.

What are they afraid of? Surely not that they would find no following whatever? The very idea!
