He didn&#8217;t want to discuss Lambeth resolution 1.10 on human sexuality: somehow it found its way into the Human Dignity Call, nonetheless. Liberals forced him to remove it. Conservatives are trying to force him to put it back. He wanted to use electronic voting machines: they are too confusing (and they reveal real numbers, which could be embarrassing) so he changed voting to &#8220;voice votes&#8221;, although no one knows how that will work. He wanted everyone to get along: conservative bishops have refused to take part in the Eucharist with homosexual bishops. And we are only on day four.<\/p>\n<p>Little wonder Welby is moving to a more compatible occupation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Justin Welby auditioning for The Ministry of Silly Walks: As you can imagine, it was an easy transition from oil executive to Archbishop of Canterbury to the Ministry of Silly Walks &#8211; I, for one, have seen this coming for &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.anglicansamizdat.net\/wordpress\/the-defining-image-of-lambeth-2022\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"iawp_total_views":3,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2700],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-29712","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-lambeth-2022"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.anglicansamizdat.net\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29712","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.anglicansamizdat.net\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.anglicansamizdat.net\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.anglicansamizdat.net\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.anglicansamizdat.net\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29712"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.anglicansamizdat.net\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29712\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.anglicansamizdat.net\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29712"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.anglicansamizdat.net\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29712"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.anglicansamizdat.net\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29712"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
