[Guelph Mercury] 17 Apr 2007--Guelph Anglicans are largely supportive of same-sex marriage, according to local church official David Howells. But when Anglican bishops of Canada meet with the Archbishop of Canterbury today in Niagara Falls, says Howells, the spiritual leader will find the flock divided on the issue.
The dispute could lead to a serious split in the church, driving some parishioners to seek other worship options, said Howells, rector of St. David and St. Patrick Anglican Church.
The conflict, he added, is a reflection of a much deeper question over whether the Anglican Church will remain flexible in its interpretation of the Bible, or adhere to a more literal reading of the holy book.
