Sometimes I wonder if these bishops might somehow make an orthodox case for supporting SSM, but then I read:
[blockquote]
However, Bishop Brent, and I, and that line of bishops would say that the purpose of Christians seeking to work together and build stronger relationships is so that we can have a stronger voice to take a stand for human rights and to work for justice.
[/blockquote]
And then I am reminded of the gulf. Here we see Christian unity as merely a means to strengthen human rights. But who gave us those “rights”? How do we know what they are?. Who is the Judge? That’s all forgotten.
