I'm confused. Are you a Christian or aren't Catholics Christians?

You neatly sidestepped the women bishops mind.

Are you a Christian or are people who quote the Bible to justify the points I just raised Christians?

Are you comfortable being dismissed as a boutique Christian?

If the Church of England do what you claim, then some of their branches need management attention for not following policy. Or management needs changing for being weak.

You are describing an ideal church or perhaps your local hangout. You are not describing what Lambeth Palace are quite happy to perpetuate.

To permit is to promote.
