\"\"<\/a>Yesterday the Call on Human Dignity included this (my emphasis):<\/p>\n

All human beings are made in the image of God. Therefore, Anglicans are committed to respect, protect, and acknowledge the dignity of all. There has been, however, a gap between rhetoric and reality. Historical exploitation, deepening poverty, and prejudice continue to threaten human dignity. Amidst these threats, and our own divisions and discernment, we call for: (i) an Archbishop\u2019s Commission for Redemptive Action; (ii) the establishment of an Anglican Innovation Fund; and (iii) a reaffirmation of Lambeth I.10 that upholds marriage as between a man and a woman<\/strong> and requires deeper work to uphold the dignity and witness of LGBTQ Anglicans.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Today it says this:<\/p>\n

Prejudice on the basis of gender or sexuality threatens human dignity. Given Anglican polity, and especially the autonomy of Provinces, there is disagreement and a plurality of views on the relationship between human dignity and human sexuality. Yet, we experience the safeguarding of dignity in deepening dialogue. It is the mind of the Anglican Communion as a whole that \u201call baptised, believing and faithful persons, regardless of sexual orientation are full members of the Body of Christ\u201d and to be welcomed, cared for, and treated with respect (I.10, 1998). Many Provinces continue to affirm that same gender marriage is not permissible. Lambeth Resolution I.10 (1998) states that the \u201clegitimizing or blessing of same sex unions\u201d cannot be advised. Other Provinces have blessed and welcomed same sex union\/marriage after careful theological reflection and a process of reception. As Bishops we remain committed to listening and walking together to the maximum possible degree, despite our deep disagreement on these issues.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Notice that the reference to \u201ca reaffirmation of Lambeth I.10 that upholds marriage as between a man and a woman\u201d<\/em>\u00a0is missing.<\/p>\n

The liberals have had their way \u2013 shocking, I know. Conservative bishops who refused to attend made a sensible decision; the whole thing is rigged from the top.<\/p>\n

Here is Bishop Sam Rose (he\/him – sorry Sam I forgot that last time) who has tweeted his love for the change with a \u2764\ufe0f. We are so blessed in Canada to have bishops who not only list their pronouns on twitter, but are fluent in emoji. And he has a rainbow thing on his photo.<\/p>\n
