Primate's Theological Commission asking for responses
General Synod 2007 asked the Primate’s Theological Commission to consider two topics related to human sexuality:
- The theological question of whether the blessing of same-sex unions is a faithful, Spirit-led development of Christian doctrine
- Scripture’s witness to the integrity of every human person and the question of the sanctity of human relationships
The commission was also asked to consult with the wider Canadian Anglican church as they prepare their response. See essays below.
