Hi Phil, I hope Jamie, Tom and Daniel have seen this- the state having come into conflict with the world of God. Though, given that the C of E has solemnised many human choices that were not, it would appear, originally part of God’s plan, I’m not sure what can be done, ahead of any changes in government and culture- which might turn the vain Church’s head (as they follow the money).
