gay bishop shock

This is getting to be rather a long-drawn-out saga.

Blocking the man's appointment "because it would split the church" seems expedient in the short term, but the issue isn't going to go away, is it? And there seems little prospect of it not causing a split, when it finally does come to a head. So is there really any merit in deferring that day?
