Liberal bishops love to brag about how they are committed to \u201cwalking together\u201d with the rest of the Anglican Communion in spite of radically different views of human sexuality \u2013 and, therefore, human nature itself, God\u2019s created order and ultimately the nature of God and his relationship to the church.<\/p>\n
It is ironic, then, that the most liberal bishops in the Anglican Church of Canada can’t even “walk together” with their own national church. Many have announced that they intend to defy the\u00a0 synod of the national church by marrying same sex couples.<\/p>\n

Michael Bird, Niagara
\nColin Johnson, Toronto
\nJohn Chapman, Ottawa
\nJane Alexander, Edmonton
\nMary\u00a0Irwin-Gibson, Montreal
\nMelissa Skelton, New Westminster
\nRobert Bennett and Linda Nicholls, Huron<\/p>\n
