Brett Murphy is very lucky to be kicked out of that rainbow cult. But I know of a church that has none of these progressive heresies. Its constitution is the Bible. No outside interference, no internal dissentions. However, its membership is rather small: myself only. And I'm wearing "the Cloth" too: tropical rig.

I don't know when it all started but for a while in the 1980's we attended the Anglican church in Darwin, the Cathedral, but after long discussions with the then vicar, who did not believe in the Virgin Birth, despite what the 39 tenet's of the church said, and then holding a night meeting at home for neighbours and friends to hear the Gospel to be shared by the visiting Archbishop of Melbourne, only to hear him put down and then consistently deny the Scripture "I am the way, the truth and the light, no man comes to the Father but by me" it was time to leave :) It has been a downhill slope to Hell for so many in that 'faith'.

I know that church. I attended a service there once, in May 1984.

There were some lovely welcoming people there. But.

My oh my I wonder if the writers of the series, "Grandchester" which I enjoyed in its early episodes, will take a Mann who thinks he's a woman and cast (shim) as a man pretending to be a woman up against the resident gay man, Leonard, who has difficulties being a man not wanting a woman, favouring instead another man and see how he handles a man who thinks he's a woman?

I need a cup of coffee!

Aaaaaaand he's back! Great article Mac! <3

The insanity sure is rife, sadly even in the church these days, it's no wonder non-Christians mock us and call us hypocrites! Sadly even God's people are not safe from the reach of satan and his demons any more.

How sad is the state of the Anglican church!!! I grieve for it , not because I belong to it, no, I am Pentecostal, but my grandson who was brought up in an AOG church is now an Anglican Priest in the Air Force and he probably gos along with this abomination. He told me he would marry LGb.... people but it isn't HOLY Matrimony, it is just marriage (??????). At what point does Jesus say "I don't know you, depart from me, you cursed"? He most certainly is not building the Anglican church these days. And the defrocked Priest should rejoice about that, because he is standing for righteousness and he is well away from the weirdo church the Anglican has become!

King Charles III is the Supreme Governor of that church. Why doesn't he clamp down on such rubbish?

Totally agree Dianne. Your grandson would be better building Christ's Church with true believers. To add more sin onto Jesus's back is not going to help the Alphabet's one iota. Go and get a blessing from the Anglican's who are prepared to act against the Word . This truely is adding mill-stones around their scrawny necks.

So this chap gets pulled over for drunk driving... he is obviously smashed. He blows over 0.20... but he says “don’t worry oshifer... I identify as being sober”. Is this not much in the same vein?

How absurd.

Not my church.

In the last few years we’ve had “conspiracy theories” running rampant however there was one that is no longer a theory...‘the world is going to experience what we thought was right will be wrong and what we thought was up will be down’

My question is why are Christians so weak that we don’t stand up in these churches and make our voices heard.....collectively we are strong...it’s no use walking away from the only thing that holds us together ...our strong belief in the Christian faith and the physical church. It is OUR church not just one persons to control.

In a broader sense....Look at our community we are considered weak ....fancy that....Australians considered weak!!

My ex was a once deacon in the local anglican church. Several transgendered and queers attended. They are now all gone, and so is everybody else. But they have a sign on the wall calling for the veneration of Gaia.

They wonder why the church is empty.

Oh dear. Apart from the injunction in Genesis - the breaking of the 9th commandment to not bear false witness is the worst part of this. And the trashing of God’s Word. The ordination of women is bad enough and unscriptural but to then decide to try to tell God that He made a mistake when He created Bishop Mann as a man?

Brett Murphy told the truth. The Bishop is lying.

Now I am wondering what Bishop Kanishka will do.

But you are right James - signs and wonders are no longer a problem except they happen but changing sex is impossible.

What an absolute travesty is this story. The Church of England has now fallen to the depths of deceit and lies. Genesis 1:27 clearly states, ‘God created man in His own image,.....male and female He created them.’

This will surely drive the faithful believers to exit the C of E., perhaps joining Rev. Calvin Robinson in the Free Church of England for those who actually believe the Bible.

it's rather contradictory isn't it - I'm a man, but no I'm a woman now, but my name is Mann. ROFL

Like you say James, this stuff writes itself and yes, it does but you put the icing on the cake with “making the man Mann the main man Mann”.

What a ludicrous situation the CofE church has put themselves in where their solution the problem is to make it worse by punishing the truthful party and then backing the lying party.
