• New Statement from College of Bishops

    There’s a new statement from the College of Bishops today about same-sex marriage.

    It can, and should, be read in full – see here: College of Bishops Guidance re Marriage 2014

    I’m appalled by its contents and in particular appalled at the way the Bishops of the Scottish Episcopal Church are treating gay clergy and lay readers in the church. The homophobic bullying of candidates for ministry – ordinands and candidates for lay readership is particularly unpleasant.

    I expect I will have more to say, in many ways and in many places.

    Easy to make basic play vestments – I’ll do it if and when the house renovation is completed.

      Are you suggesting that the three Kings could be used as substitutes for Archbishop Rowan, the Dean of Westminster and the Bishop of London?

      You may have a point.
