One might be forgiven for coming to the conclusion this week that the Church of England has dissolved into the Mad Hatter's Tea Party.
Here's what happening.
Hidden away within a Church of England press release at Year's end (and going largely unnoticed) was this statement that "the requirements in the 2005 statement concerning the eligibility for ordination of those in civil partnerships whose relationships are consistent with the teaching of the Church of England apply equally in relation to the episcopate".
Let the Tea Party come together.
So, if you are married to someone of the opposite sex, you can have sex. (Having children is optional and abortion is available on demand if you happen to slip up.)
