“A ban on gay marriage in churches has been lifted by the House of Lords Gay couples will be able to marry in church after the House of Lords last night lifted a ban on same sex unions in religious premises.”
The most interesting thing in the article is that now we must capitalize the word “Gay.”

We still love and respect Mother Church, for all she's gone quite barmy, but for many of us Anglicans in our mostly national churches worldwide this changes nothing. "The Faith once delivered to the saints" lives on.
Traditional Anglican ping, continued in memory of its founder Arlin Adams.
FReepmail Huber or sionnsar if you want on or off this low-volume ping list.
This list is pinged by Huber and sionnsar.

I’m sorry but it is not a Church if they allow this to happen in it. Perhaps it used to be one?
To: Steelfish
What authority does the House of Lords have over the church?
To: trumandogz
and the Church of England wonders why its hemorogging worshipers.

Who would have thought that the last bastion of true Anglicanism would be located outside of England? Who is the average Anglican, today? An African woman who does not speak English as her first language. At least the excesses of “mother” church aren’t being embraced by the African church (so far as I know). Meanwhile, back in the “States” we see yet another wave of disheartened folks seeking shelter from the maelstrom of evil that has taken over the Episcopal Church - they are coming in weekly with storeis we have heard here for over 30 years. Enough already! Let’s call “mother” church what she really is - Apostate!

Brits have no balls to stand up for what’s right anymore. Haven’t had balls in a long time. Oh well the muslims will set some things back right. Hope they’re ready to pay jizya.

"But the practical result of this principle is one on which there is no need of speculating; it works in one unvarying way. When error is admitted into the Church, it will be found that the stages of its progress are always three. It begins by asking toleration. Its friends say to the majority: You need not be afraid of us; we are few and weak; only let us alone; we shall not disturb the faith of others. The Church has her standards of doctrine; of course we shall never interfere with them; we only ask for ourselves to be spared interference with our private opinions. Indulged in this for a time, error goes on to assert equal rights. Truth and error are two balancing forces. The Church shall do nothing which looks like deciding between them; that would be partiality. It is bigotry to assert any superior right for the truth. We are to agree to differ and any favoring of the truth, because it is truth, is partisanship. What the friends of truth and error hold in common is fundamental. Anything on which they differ is ipso facto non-essential. Anybody who makes account of such a thing is a disturber of the peace of the church. Truth and error are two co-ordinate powers, and the great secret of church-statesmanship is to preserve the balance between them. From this point error soon goes on to its natural end, which is to assert supremacy. Truth started with tolerating; it comes to be merely tolerated and that only for a time. Error claims a preference for its judgments on all disputed points. It puts men into position, not as at first in spite of their departure from the Churchs faith, but in consequence of it. Their recommendation is that they repudiate that faith, and position is given them to teach others to repudiate it, and make them skillful in combating it." (pp. 195-196) From: THE CONSERVATIVE REFORMATION AND ITS THEOLOGY as represented in the Augsburg Confession and in the history and literature of the Evangelical Lutheran Church by Charles P. Krauth, D.D. (1871). [Note date]

Is hemorogging a new Olympic sport? It does not take long to spell-check.
To: Steelfish
England stole all of those beautiful churches from the Catholic Church via Henry VIII. England should give us Catholics back our churches.
To: GinaLolaB
Agree. This way the Gays could get married in Hyde Park.

This is so twisted, so sinful, so perverted.
If there are any Christians left in that church,
they should run, not walk, to the exits.
If this isn't the great falling away, I don't know what is.
Our Redemption draweth nigh.
