Dear Madam Editor, As a regular reader of Christian Today, I do not dispute your editorial decision to report that the Bishop of Manchester has appointed the Revd Rachel Mann an honorary Canon of the city’s Cathedral. With the Church of England deeply divided over human sexuality, Canon Mann’s self-identification as a lesbian makes the appointment newsworthy.
