You’ve probably seen that headline over more articles than you want to read, but don’t overlook Alison Webster’s article in today’s Guardian. A couple of quotes:
Archbishop Peter Akinola of Nigeria, for instance, who wrote a vitriolic piece attacking lesbians, gay men and their supporters in Church Times last July, is often assumed (incorrectly) by Christians in the UK to speak for the whole African continent.
When putting together the post-apartheid constitution for South Africa, the ANC recognised that justice is indivisible, and outlawed discrimination on grounds of race, gender and sexuality.
Ms Webster is social responsibility adviser for the Oxford diocese.
