The Anglican Communion stands at a crossroads. Some want
Anglicanism to be exclusive of gays, especially gay priests and
bishops. The Windsor Report is seen as the means of achieving this
by centralising the Anglican Communion, and bringing wayward
provinces, like ECUSA, to heel. In this collection of essays,
distinguished academics from the UK and the US offer lively,
thoughtful and scholarly critiques of the Windsor Report. What
unites this collection is the view that Windsor does not provide a
way forward for Anglicanism. Contributors write from a variety of
standpoints, including justice for gays, opposition to
centralisation, and/or the need for legitimate moral diversity
within Anglicanism. This timely collection offers a means of
grappling with what has become one of the most controversial issues
within Anglicanism, and also a way of reflecting on the future
shape of the Church, and how inclusive that Church is going to be.
