Marriage Canon Debate Heats Up

Notes: "For some Canadian Anglicans, General Synod's decision on July 6 [2013] to bring to its next meeting in 2016 a motion changing the church's law to allow same-sex marriage will bring new life; but others argue it will only serve to precipitate the church's decline. The 'Anglican Journal' interviewed an equal number of bishops, clergy and laity from opposite sides of the divide to gauge opinions about the controversial resolution to change Canon 21 on marriage".
