From Breitbart-The Church of England may split despite the Archbishop of Canterbury’s best efforts to hold it together, as the views of evangelical men and the rest of the Anglican Communion are drifting further apart over issues such as gay marriage and abortion.
In his address to the General Synod last week, Archbishop Welby told members that he had made 14 trips over the last 18 months to visit Primates in all parts of the world. What he found is that the worldwide Anglican Communion is “a flourishing Communion but also a divided Communion.”
He warned “Our divisions may be too much to manage. In many parts of the Communion, including here, there is a belief that opponents are either faithless to the tradition, or by contrast that they are cruel, judgemental, inhuman. I have to say that we are in a state so delicate that without prayer and repentance, it is hard to see how we can avoid some serious fractures.”

Of course the Gafcon crowd can keep huffing, puffing, thieving and deceiving as long as they choose to exclude, demonize, punish and hate...the choices are quite clear, some Anglicans are selfish and brutal towards their sisters and brothers and some are not and some are enlightened enough to know that LGBTI are born that way and not simply mischievious and lusty dogs. True, if may be hard for bigots to back away from their comfortzone of thinking these are extra holy and extra superior and supreme beings.
