Disestablishment?

[tinyjo]

I wonder what will happen to the Church of England after this debate over gay bishops. The future doesn't look rosy what ever way the debate comes out, really. It was nice to hear an actual bishop endorsing my view of the bible, saying that it consists of people describing their experiences of God and what they believed about it. It's a valuable document, particularly for learning about Jesus but it does need to be read in the context of it's time and shouldn't be taken literally.

The literalist interpreters...

I wonder just how much influence those conservative Baptist-become-more evangelicals have had on all Christendom with their literalist interpretation.

I can't say I know much about Anglicans, but it seems that in the absence of strong doctrine, views can be swayed by external elements.
