Best of luck to them. I am not sure if same sex marriages in the British Anglican church will stem the hemorrhaging there -- only 17% of the people self-identify as Anglicans (less than 2% in Scotland) -- but at least it will put the Anglican Church on par with other Protestant Churches -- with Lutherans, for example, with whom they are in communion -- that do clerical same sex marriages. Of course, all this won't keep Pope Francis from praying for unity and pairing his fellow Catholic bishops with Anglian bishops (as he did earlier this year in an ecumenical liturgy at St. Peter's), some of whom -- like Rt. Rev. Kevin Robertson of York-Scarborough, Canada -- are opening gay and married. Indeed, the Holy Father hopes that the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove will continue to open and close it wings on both gay married Anglican bishops and celibate Catholic bishops alike -- for the sake of church unity and a half thawed winter.
