From Premier-
The
Archbishop of Canterbury has addressed the division in the Church of
England over sexuality, encouraging members to seek unity.
While some claim the Church is moving away from the Bible, others claim a greater welcome needs to be given to LGBT people.
"Is there a simple answer?" he asked. "If there was a simple answer we would have found it. It is a complex of things and every church - not just the Anglicans - every church is struggling and has always struggled between the balance of what holiness looks like and how we treat those who fall short.
"Do we condemn them and expel them? Or do we only let them go on in the Church under certain conditions? Do we ignore it and say it really doesn't matter? Of course not. But the difference between setting the ideal and applying that ideal pastorally has always been a tension for the church and these issues are hugely, hugely, hugely important."
