[Anglican Mainstream] 30 Dec 2008--The chairman of Reform, the Rev’d Rod Thomas, today responded to the publication of the Church of England’s legislative proposals on women bishops.
He expressed appreciation for the detailed work undertaken by the Manchester Group, but warned that the end result of relying on a Code of Practice to solve differences over women bishops would be a proliferation of court cases. He said it was a huge distraction from the more urgent work of seeking to bring spiritual life and hope to an increasingly secularised and spiritually rudderless nation.
