Sydney firm on women bishops

http://your.sydneyanglicans.net/sydneystories/sydney_firm_on_women_bishops/

[your.sydneyanglicans.net] 27.11.07--A decision by a NSW diocese to elect a female bishop would clearly ‘break the unity’ of the Anglican Church, says the Bishop of North Sydney, Glenn Davies.

In his column in this month’s Archbishop Writes, Archbishop Peter Jensen has confirmed that he cannot participate in the consecration of a woman bishop. Yet Anglican protocol holds that as Metropolitan of NSW, the Archbishop of Sydney consecrates all NSW bishops.
