[The Church of England Newspaper] October 6, 2005--Synod elections determining the future direction of the Church of England in the midst of controversies over women bishops and homosexual clergy were held at the weekend. This was the first election since Jeffrey John was forced to stand down from the post of Bishop of Reading after a clamour over his relationship with another man, and his teaching on marriage and sexuality. That event was regarded as a cataclysm by church liberals who immediately formed the organisation ‘Inclusive Church’ by signing a worldwide petition in their thousands.
