| | Appointment of Canon Dr Jeffrey John as Bishop of Reading: |
 | | But Jeffrey draws a clear and legitimate distinction between his previous role as a theologian, whose job it is to explore new ways of thinking, and his future role as a bishop, whose job it is to teach the doctrine of the Church and maintain its unity. | | | John has argued for the church accepting faithful, lifelong, same-sex relationships. | | | First, he is fully committed to upholding the doctrine and practice of the Church of England as expressed in the House of Bishops report Issues in Human Sexuality. |

| | Jeffrey John, who is also to be Rector of the CatheDral and Abbey Church of St Albans, was forced to stand down as Bishop of Reading last year after protests by conservative evangelicals who see homosexuality as against biblical and church teaching. | | | No wonder as a church, the Anglian congregation is shrinking, as the church ignores the clear teaching of the Bible. | | | The views expressed by the churches in Reading were not 'NOT ON MY DOORSTEP!', they were expressing the concern that it is against bible teaching to appoint someone of his tendancies. |

| | While Dr John stepped down last year in a bid to save the Church from splitting, the US branch of Anglicanism consecrated its first gay bishop earlier this year, while in Canada, some churches have begun blessing same-sex couples in special ceremonies. | | | Doctor Philip Giddings, the lay preacher at Greyfriars Church, Reading who successfully campaigned for Dr John to step down as bishop of the town shortly after he was appointed, says he is worried the new appointment as dean of St Albans could split the Church. | | | This has sparked talk of a schism within the Church, with many of the 70 million strong communion threatening to cut all ties with any branch of the Church that seems to "endorse" gay clergy or relationships. |
