The Church of England has been forced to reaffirm its opposition to same-sex marriage after the Archbishop of Canterbury appeared to suggest that he thinks it is “great”.
In his first interview with a gay publication, the Most Rev Justin Welby, told PinkNews that the Church had to accept that same-sex marriage is now the law in England and Wales after securing overwhelming support in Parliament.
He said it was “right and proper” that same-sex marriage has now come into force, adding: “And that’s great.”
Trying to avoid the Mozilla effect, I see. Won’t be successful until capitulation occurs and kneeling before Zod, Welby offers the same words without qualification.
The matters revealed in this article and a previous one by the telegraph contrast strongly with articles on the ABC’s own website.
It appears that, in his own way, ++Welby is every bit as slippery as his predecessor, perhaps more so.
