When is Gafcon going to start listening? | Savitri Hensman
is time ultra-conservative groups such as the Anglican Mission to revisit the issue of homosexuality seriously
ultra-religious "conservatives" have launched an Anglican mission in England (AMIE). This is "dedicated to the conversion of England church planting and Bible."
leaders GAFCON (Global Anglican Future Conference) and FCA (Fellowship of Confession Anglicans) are seen as defending traditional Anglicanism. Others see them as out of step with church tradition and oppose attempts to undermine the other in the family of churches of the Anglican Communion.
In May, a statement issued by the Council of primates (the most senior bishops) from GAFCON / FCA, regretted that "the promotion of a gospel of darkness seem to replace the traditional reading Scripture and sound Theology of the Church with an uncertain faith and a never-ending process of listening. "However, for many, not the" listening process "on sexuality really began.
a process of communion-wide "thorough and dispassionate to the issue of homosexuality" taken seriously ", as in the teaching of Scripture and the results of scientific research and medical, "" pastoral concern for those who are homosexual "and" dialogue with them, "began in 1978 as a teenager trapped.
The next Lambeth Conference of Bishops in 1988 also stressed the importance of "human rights of homosexual orientation." Meanwhile, I worked for the Center for lesbians and gays Black, based in London, supporting many other lesbians, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT & T) of people of Asian-Americans, Africans and Latin Americans living in or passing through London, and contact with groups and networks abroad.
In some countries, anti-gay laws passed during the colonial era remained on the books but is rarely used. Elsewhere, however, homophobia as intensified amid the global imbalances in wealth and power, people frustrated by the lack of economic and social progress that has been requested for scapegoats. The selfish, corrupt governments and often encourages the targeting of ethnic or sexual minorities. But those on the receiving end, and others interested in human rights, organized to resist. At the time of the 1990 International people lesbians and gays of color conference, held in London, were groups of gays and lesbians and networks in different parts of the world, while others were emerging markets.
- There was also an increase in the grant of the variety of forms that have same-sex love in different cultures and eras. Meanwhile, internationally, many people felt shaken by the social changes over which they had little control. There was a game in some churches against what appeared to be the erosion of old certainties, beliefs and scholars explored proposed new interpretations of the Bible.
This faction has gathered more support, using the comforting stereotypes that people of the South, though materially poor, they were spiritually richer than in the west. At the Lambeth Conference of 1998, they managed to set aside the results of the study, despite Resolution 1.10 was "welcome" them, including a call "to hear the experience of homosexual persons" and sentenced "irrational fear of homosexuals." Many leaders, however, refused to listen.
