Telegraph reports Sentamu saying sexual ethics are not core issues

[EV News] 23 July 2007--An article has appeared in today's Daily Telegraph in which they report the Archbishop of York as saying that sexual ethics are not core issues. The Telegraph reports:

"Dr Sentamu, a close ally of Dr Williams, said that as long as Anglican bishops did not deny the basic Christian doctrines they should all be able to remain within the same Church.

While liberal north Americans disagreed with conservatives over sexual ethics, these were not core issues, he said."

We have been unable to confirm that this accurately reports John Sentamu but if it does then it is very serious. Previously he appeared to have taken the view that sexual immorality is important and that the actions of the revisionists and sodomites in North America is a problem. If these reports are accurate it indicates that he has changed his stance and adopted the revisionists way of handling Scripture....
