Thinking Anglicans, Thinking Catholics....

One of the Tablet pieces which has generated the most buzz in recent weeks is Clifford Longley's take on same-sex civil partnerships, published in the 7 January edition.

The piece was not published online, but Simon Sarmiento of the oh-so-valuable CofE digest Thinking Anglicans was so intrepid as to ask for the paper's permission to run the piece on his site.

Gratefully, it was granted, so do go read. Even if you find yourself disagreeing with Longley, it will make you think....

(And, by the by, Simon tells me that the General Synod of the Church of England meets week, with an "almighty battle" over the consecration of women bishops slated to be on tap.... Keep an eye on TA for all the latest.)
