Church plea for unity over gays
Times
From Ruth Gledhill in Armagh, Northern Ireland


THE Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, last night delivered his most powerful rebuke to the warring prelates of the Anglican Church.

In a passionate and at times almost despairing plea for peace that he acknowledged was probably “doomed”, he also condemned “anxious striving, desperate activism”.

He urged the archbishops who lead the worldwide Anglican Church to “find peace in our worship together”.

Dr Williams was preaching at evensong in Armagh, half way through a critical meeting of the primates of the Anglican Communion to discuss the Windsor Report, set up by Dr Williams in an effort to resolve the crisis over homosexuality that has brought the Church to the brink of schism.

1. divide the money and the property
and let it split.

i won't tithe to my little VERY liberal church -- because they send money to uganda, balk at rebuking conservatives who attack gay folk, etc.

it's so frustrating.
