»New split in Church of England over women bishops | guardian.co.uk

Conservative evangelicals in the Church of England today became the latest group to threaten to split the church if it decides to consecrate women bishops.

At the start of this week’s meeting of the General Synod, the church’s parliament, in London, they warned that their clergy would in future be trained outside the Church of England if the proposals go ahead later this year.

The pressure group Reform, which claims to represent 350 ordained clergy and which has a track record of threatening action unless it gets its way, claimed its parishes would raise money to train their own clergy and would accordingly reduce payments to the Church of England.

What are these guys, 5 years old? No, we don’t want to play with girls, girls smell! We’re going to build our own den and it’s no girls allowed! What tremendous dicks.
