Imagine... a church VOTED to allow FEMALE bishops. Whatever next??? Peace, love, goodwill to all men (and even women)?? Heaven forbid, this is not the kind of thing any Christian should be supporting.
I cannot believe how backward the Catholic Church is. They make these hateful Anglicans look like angels.
Obviously I agree with all you write. However, when I heard this (about the Vatican reaction) I kinda yawned; it would have been surprising if they said anything else.
ReplyDeleteAlso pretty surprising that the CoE was still debating this kind of thing 80 or so years after women got the vote and I must admit more surprising that the 'ayes' won so handily. Basically what this says is that women are more or less OK, but gays are still 'infradig'; I'm just waiting until the first female Bishop somes out as a lesbian. How will they deal with that conundrum? If the CoE believes in tradition, then they'll simply refuse to believe it is possible, just like Queen Victoria, so probably be forced to 'ignore' it.
