Global South urges Church of England to pull back on gay bishops

Nine primates urge the House of Bishops to rethink gay partnered bishops

George Conger? in Anglican Ink
January 12, 2013

The Global South Coalition of Anglican Primates ? representing a majority of members of the Anglican Communion ? has urged the House of Bishops of the Church of England to rescind its decision to permit clergy in gay civil partnerships to be appointed to the Episcopate.

By allowing partnered gay clergy to become bishops, the Church of England was jeopardizing the lives of Anglicans in majority Muslim countries, who would become targets of rage from extremists who would not appreciate the distinction being drawn by the House of Bishops between sexually active gay bishops and bishops who had entered a legal relationship defined by sexual activity, but who would nonetheless refrain from sexual activity.

Signed by nine archbishops, the statement follows responses from the Archbishops of Kenya, Uganda and Nigeria last week decrying the initiative.

The explosion over gay civil partnerships appears to have been an ?own goal? on the part of the House of Bishops of the Church of England.? The Bishop of Sodor and Man, the Rt. Rev. Robert Paterson ? who had been charged with leading a committee investigating the question ? has stated the matter was taken out of his committee?s hands by the House of Bishops executive committee.

The final statement released on 20 Dec 2012 was not in exact accordance with the recommendations of his committee.? He noted the bulk of the business of the meeting had been devoted to the women bishops question and the civil partnership issue was not given a thorough hearing.? What was adopted was a holding statement -- non-answer driven by legal advice that would satisfy parties until the final decision was made later this year.

In their letter, the Global South said their problem with the statement arose from the bishops abdication of responsibility on this issue with their clergy.

would ?widen the gap? with its sister churches in the Anglican Communion

??There is already an ambiguity regarding civil partnerships per se. We learnt that most civil partnerships, according to the Office for National Statistics in the UK, take place among the most sexually active age group. In addition dissolutions of civil partnerships are now increasing especially in the last few years. This puts into question the motives behind this civil partnership and adds to our confusion in the Global South.?

They noted that when the Church of England allowed civil partnerships in 2005, they said that ?The House of Bishops does not regard entering into a civil partnership as intrinsically incompatible with holy orders, provided the person concerned is willing to give assurances to his or her bishop that the relationship is consistent with the standards for the clergy set out in Issues in Human Sexuality.?

The Global South archbishops asked, ?Now, with allowing candidates for episcopacy to do the same, to whom should they give assurances? Clarification on this point is needed.?

?Sadly, both the decision to permit clergy to enter civil partnerships and this latest decision which some call it a ?local option,? are wrong and were taken without prior consultation or consensus with the rest of the Anglican Communion at a time when the Communion is still facing major challenges of disunity.?

Church doctrine and discipline should not be crafted by lawyers or bureaucrats, they argued. ?The Church, more than any time before, needs to stand firm for the faith once received from Jesus Christ through the Apostles and not yield to the pressures of the society.?

Man City Expect ?24m Offer For 'Rotten Apple' Mario Balotelli

MANCHESTER CITY are expecting AC Milan to make a ?24million bid for Mario Balotelli ? despite branding him ?a rotten apple?.

The comment from owner Silvio Berlusconi seemed to put an end to a move back home to Italy. Balo?s representative Mino Railo said: ?Mario was sorry to hear the words of Berlusconi.

"But Mario has asked me to be quiet because he appreciates that he is loved by the Manchester City president.? Balotelli, who turned up for training yesterday with a new bleached blond hairdo, is a lifelong Milan supporter ? despite winning the Serie A title at Inter.

Many at City want rid of the troublesome striker, 22, and the club will sell him if they can find the right replacement.

Mad-cap Balo has been nothing but trouble since he arrived from Inter for ?22m in 2010. Last week he had a shocking training-ground bust-up with City boss Roberto Mancini.

Ontario Wedding Film from Honey and Dear

This week we received the wonderful news that our Little Black Book Blog editor Mallory welcomed her new baby boy into the world. My heart is positively bursting with joy for her. I?m not only giddy from the love that a new baby brings but I get the double bonus of getting to help out while Mallory enjoys her new bundle of joy. And let me tell you it is SO good to be back on the LBB Blog. Case and point, this absolutely exquisite wedding sent to us by cinematographers extraordinair Honey & Dear. It?s a beautifully elegant mix of culture, family, and flat-out romance. And did I mention that since the crazy handsome groom is a professional hockey player for the Tampa Bay Lightning, he and?his gorgeous bride have braved a lot of distance in their 11 years together? Commitment is a beautiful thing and you can see even more?right here.

From Honey & Dear: The story began approximately eleven years ago when Mike and Lenna met in High school. When they had first met Lenna was unavailable and unaware that Mike was interested in her. They remained friends for a year before he built up the courage to ask her out. And it was not until his third attempt that she said yes. After three months of dating, Mike told Lenna that he had been drafted to the OHL and that he would be away for eight months of the year. This did not bother Lenna at all because at this point Lenna knew that Mike was the one for her. They did not anticipate that the road ahead would only get harder and that their relationship would remain long distance as Mike furthered in his career as a professional hockey player.

On June 4, 2010, Mike and Lenna were celebrating 8 years of dating. Mike was home for the summer and told Lenna that he wanted to take her out to dinner to celebrate. That night when Lenna was getting ready and about to leave her house, to her surprise she found a bouquet of roses and a note at her front door instructing her to drive to the first place they had kissed. Lenna knew exactly where to go and thought that maybe they were having dinner at one of the Italian restaurants on Unionville Main Street. However this was not the case, as Lenna was put on a scavenger hunt throughout Unionville to places that were milestones in their relationship. Finally she ended up at Mike?s house where she was lead through a pathway of rose pedals and candles leading her to the backyard. When Lenna got to the backyard she thought, how nice it was that Mike was going to cook dinner instead of going out. Lenna was completely oblivious to the fact that Mike was about to propose.

Lenna could not wait to share the news with the families so Mike and Lenna got into the car and drove all the way back to Lenna?s house. Little did Lenna know there was another surprise waiting for her. When she got home she was greeted with family and friends that were waiting to congratulate the newly engaged couple.

Two years later, on August 5, 2012, Mike and Lenna took the next step in their relationship and tied the knot. The process of planning the wedding was a lot of fun as they had many family members and friends that were very helpful along the way. Both of their families come from Macedonian descent and therefore they had many Macedonian traditions throughout the wedding. Including getting married at a Macedonian church where the service was performed by Lenna?s uncle, Bishop Demetirus.

The decision as to which venue the reception was to take place was an easy one. The Hazelton Manor is a spectacular venue, with amazing management and staff, as well as a place that accommodated their 575 guests. Hazelton Manor?s d?cor worked beautifully with the theme of their wedding and the flowers by Canadiana Flourists added the perfect accent to the venue.

The day was beautiful and both the bride and groom enjoyed every moment. Their most vivid and favourite moment at the wedding was when they were taking photos in between the ceremony and reception. There was one particular pose where they were standing at arms length from one another and reaching for one another?s hands. They both looked at eachother and got a little emotional as everything started to sink in. They were so excited to finally be married after ten years of dating.

Physical therapy in the intensive care unit is better for patients and the hospital's bottom line

Jan. 11, 2013 ? In a study evaluating the financial impact of providing early physical therapy for intensive care patients, researchers at Johns Hopkins found that the up-front costs are outweighed by the financial savings generated by earlier discharges from the intensive care unit and shorter hospital stays overall.

An article describing the findings, "ICU Early Physical Rehabilitation Programs: Financial Modeling of Cost Savings," is published online January 11 ahead of print in the March issue of Critical Care Medicine.

"The evidence is growing that providing early physical and occupational therapy for intensive care patients -- even when they are on life support -- leads to better outcomes. Patients are stronger and more able to care for themselves when they are discharged," says Dale M. Needham, M.D., Ph.D., an associate professor of medicine and critical care specialist at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and senior author of the study.

Needham says a major barrier to early rehab programs in the ICU has been concern among hospital administrators about the cost. "However, our study shows that a relatively low investment up front can produce a significant overall reduction in the cost of hospital care for these patients," Needham says. "Such programs are an example of how we can save money and improve care at the same time."

For the study, the researchers developed a financial model based on actual experience at The Johns Hopkins Hospital's medical intensive care unit (MICU), as well as on projections for hospitals of different sizes with variable lengths of stay.

The Johns Hopkins MICU admits about 900 patients each year. In 2008, the hospital created an early rehabilitation program with dedicated physical and occupational therapists, which added about $358,000 to the cost of care annually. However, by 2009, the length of stay in the MICU had decreased an average of 23 percent, down from six-and-a-half days to five days, while the time spent by those same patients as they transitioned to less-intensive hospital units fell 18 percent. Using their financial model, the authors estimated a net cost saving for the hospital of about $818,000 per year, even after factoring in the up-front costs.

The researchers then analyzed the potential impact of early rehabilitation services in 24 different scenarios, accounting for variations in the number of ICU admissions, cost savings per day and reductions in length of stay.

"We were very conservative in creating the financial model to avoid overstating the potential net cost savings," says Robert Lord, A.B., lead author of the study. "We found that in 20 out of the 24 scenarios, hospitals would have an overall cost savings by providing early rehabilitation to their intensive care unit patients, and in the four remaining scenarios, using the most conservative assumptions, there was a modest net cost increase of up to $88,000 per year," adds Lord.

Needham says their financial model can serve as a resource for hospitals throughout the United States to estimate their own net cost impact for providing early physical rehabilitation to ICU patients. He says length of stay is the biggest driver of cost to a hospital, which typically gets paid a fixed amount for caring for patients with specific diagnoses.

"The bottom line is that early rehabilitation in the ICU helps patients play an active role in their recovery and can make a big difference in their quality of life when they leave the hospital," says Needham. "More patients are surviving their ICU stay than ever before, yet many lose muscle strength during treatment for a critical illness because of long periods of bed rest." Early rehabilitation therapy, he says, can prevent muscle weakness that impairs patients' ability to care for themselves after hospital discharge.

The researchers conclude that with their conservative projections, investment in early rehabilitation for ICU patients can generate substantial net cost savings for hospitals while improving patient outcomes.

The study was funded by the Johns Hopkins Critical Care Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Program.

Showing Grace When Evangelical Leaders Speak Intemperately

Recent comments in the wake of the Sandy Hook elementary school shooting, from the likes of Mike Huckabee and James Dobson, among others, have evoked an impassioned conversation on the public representation of evangelicals and how evangelicals best engage the culture. ?A few pieces offered here on this blog have addressed that conversation ? and here is another fantastic entry, this one from Rob Schwarzwalder of the Family Research Council. ?This is a bit longer than the typical blog post, but it?s a worthy piece and I hope you read and share it.

By Rob Schwarzwalder

The need for both grace and truth in public discourse and action is demanded by the character of the Savior Christians profess to serve (John 1:18).? Grace, the unmerited kindness of a loving God, and truth, the irreducible standard of right and wrong from which there can be no compromise, together should animate the political and social activities of Evangelical believers.

That?s hard.? It also presupposes that service born of love for the Lord Jesus Christ is the essential issue in life for all who profess His Name.? If not, why engage, as Christians, in the public square or anywhere else?

Some argue that the salient issue in Evangelical participation in politics is tone: They cite statements by well-known Christian leaders that they believe demonstrate arrogance, crassness, cruelty, and ignorance.? What makes such accusations particularly painful is when they come from other Evangelicals.

No one in public life is free from occasional intemperance.? I know of no one ? no one ? who has not said things he does not regret (sometimes almost immediately), publicly or at least privately.? This has been true of every leader throughout church history, in every sphere of ministry.

The larger question is twofold: (1) Do those who make such statements later regret them, and (2) does the spasmodic off-remark invalidate a person?s entire ministry?

Do apologies suffice when public offense has been given?? In one sense, no: We are responsible for our comments and the pain they cause.? Yet humble contrition for error is what Scripture calls upon God?s people to experience and express.? When it is given, and when steps are taken to rectify the harm done, believers should accept such contrition with welcoming forgiveness.

In addition, what of the totality of the ministries of those leaders who occasionally employ unwise language or take too severe a tone?? Is a legacy of compassion, integrity, and evangelism discredited because a man who is continuously in the public eye for decades proves guilty of isolated spasms of rhetorical excess?? I think not.

I wonder how Paul the Apostle would fare in the eyes of some North American Evangelicals.? He spoke the truth in love (Ephesians 4:15), but in that context could be quite blunt, as the hard candor that resonates in his epistles demonstrates.? Perhaps, were Paul still with us today, an ever-wise Evangelical leader, someone who sees himself as perpetually imperturbable and above whatever fray is taking place would write the something like the following:

Paul is a fine man and, of course, an apostle.? He has experienced trials and tribulations few, if any, of us will ever know.? But does this justify him saying that all Cretans are liars or that some weaker believers belong to the devil?s synagogue?? Paul needs to take a step back and consider his relational skills within the Body of Christ.? He is exhausted, worn down, and needs time to reflect on the pain he is causing.? A qualified Christian counselor probably could help Paul come to terms with the deeply-rooted anger that causes him to say things like, ?I have decided to deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of his flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus? (I Corinthians 5:15).? It is this kind of pretentious, self-arrogating attitude that makes Evangelicals everywhere look ridiculous.? Paul ? stand down, please.? You?re embarrassing us.

Such comments of course reflect a low view of Scripture, but are they really too far afield of what some believers write about their brothers and sisters on the front lines of the culture war?

Am I suggesting that searing attacks on one?s opponents are ever justified?? No.? Our speech should flow out of hearts filled with both the love and purity of Christ.? This should discourage giving free-flow to our emotions, especially when our blood is up.

Yet should we publicly excoriate anyone who, in our view, occasionally deviates from a pristine attitude of Godly speech or conduct?? There are times when public confrontation is needed; witness Paul with Peter in Galatians 2.? Yet sharp and even condescending criticisms of other believers find no basis in the Word of God.

We should extend charity to those we call on to extend charity to those they oppose.? Should we approach them, humbly and privately, before reproaching them publicly?? Should we be quick to forgive them when they apologize, and eager to restore them as they seek to honor their Lord?? Evangelicals should know their Savior well enough to be able to answer these questions without guidance.

Let?s be frank: Not every Evangelical leader is quick to apologize for his or her verbal excesses.? Some get quite defensive and dismiss criticism out of hand.? However, those in this category truly are few and far between.? Moreover, everyone has blind spots ? should we be ready to hold in contempt someone whose public tact is not always as strong as it should be?? The eye from which a large log protrudes might be your own.

Additionally, it is important to recognize that the politics of moral conviction are inherently oppositional.? One person believes that two men should be allowed to ?marry,? with all the same legal and cultural sanctions this historic term implies.? Another believes that marriage is an institution between one man and one woman, without qualification.? There is no common ground between them.

Thus, no matter how winsome we are in our demeanor and language ? and winsome we should, indeed, be ? our stand for marriage will draw not just disappointment from its proponents but active and, increasingly, enraged resistance from them.? We will not universally be liked.? There will be those who hate us.? Truth can have that effect, to deny which is mere fabulism.

The most gracious Man Who ever lived was scourged and crucified.? He was incapable of being obnoxious, yet was scorned and murdered.? Is there a lesson here for us?

At times, the vigor with which one seeks to advance his deeply-held convictions can surmount both his humility and good judgment, not to mention his central allegiance to and recognition of the Lordship of Christ.? The men who lived in the trenches of the First World War experienced very limited frames of vision.? Paul Fusssell, in his classic book The Great War and Modern Memory, quotes Max Plowman?s moving description of life therein:

Shutting off the landscape, (the trenches) compel us to observe the sky; and when it is a canopy of blue flecked with white clouds?and when the earth below is a shell-stricken waste, one looks up with delight?

Long-term entrenchment can induce a perspective very limited and intense.? We appreciate narrow slits of hope but surveillance of a bleak cultural landscape can produce sadness, anger, even depression.? This, in turn, causes us to forget the real purposes of our spiritual enterprise, the winning of men and women to Jesus Christ and obedience to Him in all respects.

This is a danger for Christians involved in politics and the formation of public policy more than Christians involved in, say, boat-building or elementary school teaching.? Those of us in social and political combat can become indignant too quickly and insufficiently sober-minded to evaluate what is before us with grace and wisdom.? Too caught-up in the battle at hand, the sense of our indispensability can become too great and the gravity of the issues with which we are dealing too heavy.

We should always bear in mind that Jesus is sovereign, and wins: These are the great lessons of biblical eschatology.? No endeavor, however noble or difficult, ever should rob Christians of the peace these truths bring.? No one, and no political victory, will bring about the Kingdom of Christ; He reserves final triumph for Himself, and we should rejoice in that great truth.? The poor will always be with us, the world will always be fallen, and the needs of our broken fellow humans will always be great. Belief that any political action can bring permanent remedy to these things is unscriptural and immature.

At the same time, not to care about outcomes in the name of submission to the will of Christ is more a form of Islamic fatalism than biblical faith.? If 3,200 children are being aborted in our country every day, how can we as heirs of Christ their Creator not seek to defend them with compassion, wisdom, and energy?? And when our efforts fail, such failure should induce grief, sometimes quite intense, not a shoulder-shrugging dismissal as one flits off to the next thing.

Not to care deeply about political results is to substitute Rogerian therapy for public policy.? It fails the tests of fidelity to the Word of God and the realities of human nature.? Should we linger on our disappointments, failing to remember God?s sovereignty?? Most certainly not.? But disappointments are disappointing: This reality is undiminishable.

There are some younger Evangelicals whose distaste for politics is moving them toward a less confrontational approach to politics and policy.? Those who seek to bring light more than heat are to be commended, as they desire not to rend but to build, to heal and not divide ? things which please their Lord.

And yet: While bridge-building is essential, it is also not an end in itself.? Should we work with political actors of all types to ensure that more children find loving, secure homes?? Yes, but with our eyes ever open to the fact that homosexual adoption is both prominent politically and indefensible biblically.? When we are castigated for opposing it, should we apologize for our intransigence and accept the accusation that we are mean, bigoted, heartless, etc., or, with love but also resolve, stand against a cultural shift that would hurt the very children that shift seeks to help?

When I hear some younger Evangelicals speak about civility, what they really seem to be saying is that (a) they want to avoid contention at any cost and (b) not be identified with the stereotypical (bigoted, uninformed, etc.) ?Religious Right.?

Of all generations, these younger brothers and sisters should be the first to eschew stereotypes and quit believing that the card-board cut-outs of conservative Evangelicals displayed by the news and entertainment media are genuine.? Many of them also allow meaningful subjective experiences (?my cousin is gay ? my sister had an abortion?) to influence their policy views to the point of eroding their fidelity to the biblical witness.

And, put directly, some of them need to grow up: To stand for truth is, simultaneously, to oppose, and be opposed by, evil.? That?s reality.? Brace yourselves for it.? Sweet reason will carry some days; unyielding boldness will carry others.? That?s intractable reality.

Proverbs tells us that ?a gentle answer turns away wrath? (15:1).? It also tells us that ?the righteous are as bold as a lion? (28:1).? Both are needful, depending on the circumstances.? That?s where wisdom comes in.? But don?t hide behind a sham fence of civility to justify moral cowardice, a desire to be liked by the sophisticated and educated elites.? Evil is real, and evildoers sometimes need courteous but stiff resistance from lion-like Christians.? And minimizing the seriousness of evil and its effects (?but those two guys really love each other?) is not compassion but conscience-dulling weakness.

We must be filled with grace and truth, neither to the exclusion of the other.? Kindness and confrontation are not mutually exclusive; not to confront evil, or to pretend it is less than what it is (?an alternative lifestyle? or ?a woman?s choice?) is loveless.

Have earlier generations of Evangelical leaders made mistakes?? Yes.? They have imperfectly realized the moral grandeur of our Savior.? They sometimes have said things out of anger rather than wisdom.? They sometimes have so vilified their political opponents that the latter are rendered more as caricatures than persons, as demons to be fought than image-bearers of God who merit respect.

Young Evangelicals would do well to remember that over the course of their lives and ministries, they will do exactly the same things, or do other things that are equally offensive to the Lord.? Many younger Evangelicals I know are subject to deep intellectual pride, an inflated sense of their own uniqueness, and a readiness to judge others that is more attendant to puerility than righteous indignation. ?These too will need grace, just as the errors of the prior generation call for grace today.

None of us, elderly, middle-aged, or young, Reformed or Arminian, Pentecostal or Cessationist, is now or ever will be perfect until we ?see Him as He is? (I John 3:2).? This does not mean we should not strive to be more and more conformed to the image of Christ, in character and conduct, privately and publicly, in belief and motivation.? It does mean that we should accept one another in love, learn from one another in humility, confront one another according to the commands of our Lord (Matthew 18), stand for human dignity, and fulfill the Great Commission with hearts and minds fully yielded to the King of kings.

We do Christ no great favor by believing in and obeying Him.? We only can offer our paltry and scarred lives to His service.? Are we?
