From Indepedant-The Archbishop of Canterbury has said that the Church of England cannot give its backing to same-sex marriage, but noted that “there are different groups around the place that the Church can do - or has done - great harm to.”
"You look at some of the gay, lesbian, LGBT groups in this country and around the world - Africa included, actually - and their experience of abuse, hatred, all kinds of things. We must both respond to what we've done in the past and listen to those voices extremely carefully,” Most Rev Justin Welby said in an interview with the Telegraph.
Earlier in the month, Archbishop Welby said on LBC radio that he had visited the grave of 369 Christians in South Sudan, whose killers believed that homosexuality was spread by the faith.

At least that graphic isn't as weasely as Welby is being. Welby, increasingly, isn't even speaking for the Church "by law established", much less the greater international "Anglican Church" (so-called) of his imagination.
God bless TEC, and those churches which bless ALL the Imago Dei to the order to which God calls them!
