Canadian Anglicans Will Not Be Excluded from World-Wide Communion Because of Same Sex Blessings

re: "...Kenneth Kearon, secretary general of the Anglican Communion told CanWest News, "There's no question the Anglican Church of Canada is a valued member of the Anglican Communion. There's never been a scenario considered that would lead to the exclusion of the Anglican Church of Canada." /A privilege of the office of the Archbishop of Canterbury in the Anglican Church is to decide who may attend the Lambeth Conferences every ten years in London. Invitation to Lambeth is considered a mark of full membership in the Anglican Communion. Rowan Williams has already announced that he will exclude Gene Robinson from the next Lambeth meeting in 2008...[snip]...Many, if not all, supporters of same-sex unions in the Anglican Church are agnostic on some basic questions of Christian teaching. Significantly, Michael Ingham, the country's leading Anglican episcopal supporter of same-sex blessings and openly homosexual clergy, is also a leading member of the United Religions Initiative (URI), a project to create a unified world religion that rejects Christian dogmatic theology."
