Unfortunately, for anyone hopg that the Church may have reversed s posn on same-sex attractn and that this was the first olive branch, Welby softened the blow by cg two paragraphs of a rolutn om the 1998 Lambeth Conference: one of the paragraphs affirms that to be homosexual is to live opposn to scripture; a subsequent paragraph stat that the nference nnot approve of the blsg of same-sex unns.
