- ABORTION
- church of england encourages it however although Church
teaching has for a long time stated that a foetus becomes a
person when the egg is fertilised, distinguished theologians
such as Augustine and Aquinas said this didn't happen until
between 40 and 80 days after conception Other Catholics
might argue that the Church has a fixed position on the right
to life of the foetus nonetheless

- CONTRECEPTION
- Christian ideas about
contraception come from
church teachings rather than
scripture, as the Bible has
little to say about the subject.
As a result, their teachings
on birth control are often
based on different Christian
interpretations of the meaning
of marriage, sex and the
family.

- HOMOSEXUALITY
- In the Church of England, many Anglican
clergy already bless same-sex couples on an
unofficial basis but there is no authorised
ceremony in England. The Anglican
Communion still remains divided on the issue
of homosexuality. Its first openly gay bishop -
Gene Robinson of New Hampshire - visited
the UK in November 2005 to celebrate the
tenth anniversary of Changing Attitude, a
group which campaigns for equality for
lesbian and gay Anglicans in Britain.

out' the Eucharist; they
celebrate it. In some
churches, the person who
takes the leading role in the
ceremony is called the
celebrant.
