Description

October London, England After five years of preparation, the Church of England's report on homosexuality was released. It urged greater understanding and sympathy for homosexuals, and concluded that homosexual relationships could be justified, although heterosexual marriage remained the norm. It also stated, however, that if a priest was living in a homosexual union with another man, he should resign. The report generated much controversy.
