Moving with the times, as ever, the Archbishop of Canterbury affirms that the position of the 1198, sorry 1998, declaration that gay sex is a sin, still holds.
This obviously has no direct bearing on pretty much all the members here, given that most are probably atheists, and few of the rest are Anglican, but it is still a disappointing statement to come out in 2022, since there are people in a position of influence who still take their guidance from the church.

In a letter sent to more than 650 bishops attending the once-a-decade Lambeth Conference just two hours before a potentially rancorous discussion on sexuality, Welby said the 1998 resolution, known as Lambeth 1.10, was “not in doubt”. Campaigners for LGBT+ equality within the church responded to Welby’s attempt to reconcile polarised views with anger. Jayne Ozanne said: “I feel deeply angry and frustrated that yet again priority has been given to saving a manmade institution over protecting LGBT+ people’s lives. “Let us be clear that Lambeth 1.10 encourages ‘conversion therapy’ and negates the God given love between two individuals. It is a stick with which many of us have been beaten and will continue to suffer under around the world.” |
