A Sampling of Responses to Anglican Primates' decision by # of Words

The Primates of the Anglican Communion met in Canterbury, England January 11-15, 2016. Following the Primates' decision about The Episcopal Church many American bishops (and others) issued statements. I took a sampling from the statements posted by George Conger of Anglican Ink. Curiosity caused me to see who is the most verbose. Of this sampling the Primate of the Anglican Church of Canada wins. Most, if not all, of the links to responses can be found on the Anglican Ink website.
