I mean, what's changed? Why now? Yes, there may be an official stance against same-sex marriages, but hasn't there always been? Yet certain Anglicans in certain places have overcome those barriers.<br /><br />I suppose there's a problem if you're extremely liberal but don't live in or near a more liberal parish; you might decide to worship in a more congenial church of another denomination. Evangelical Anglicans not living in or near an evangelical parish presumably have to make a similar decision.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5449677811690616608.post-16020757661591648492012-05-13T21:53:35.636+02:002012-05-13T21:53:35.636+02:00I suspect that person is not alone.
