Here is one from the Daily Mail<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby BANS gay bishops from bringing same-sex partners to global Anglican gathering in London to keep conservative church leaders happy<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The paper goes on to note that \u201cThe future of an international Anglican church summit is at risk after gay bishops were told they could not bring their same-sex spouses.\u201d<\/em> So there is some good news: Lambeth 2020 may not happen or, as a consolation prize, it will be the last one.<\/p>\n

The university hosting the event is under fire from students, one of whom claims it is putting Mammon over morals. And, since she is an \u201cLGBT student\u201d (all simultaneously? I wonder how that works?) doing a PhD in biodiversity management, she obviously has a firmer grasp on the finer points of morality than the collective efforts of Justin Welby his bishops, clergy and the university administration. Admittedly, that isn\u2019t saying much.<\/p>\n

The student notes that the university has sinned against the god of inclusion. She has a point: it’s the same god that the Church of England worships.<\/p>\n

\"\"LGBT student Natalie Yoh, 25, who’s doing a PhD in biodiversity management, accused the university of putting income above moral values.<\/p>\n

She said: ‘I was shocked that this is happening in Kent, which I have always thought of as an inclusive place.<\/p>\n

‘I think it would suggest, whether rightly or wrongly, that they are putting their commercial interests above their moral values.<\/p>\n

‘Whether or not they have made the decision about who is allowed to attend, they’re still choosing to host an event that’s being exclusive.’<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
