Check out this thread for some very interesting discussion on the comments from the Bishop of York concerning the relative importance of the issues before us:

Particularly noteworthy is this comment:
"As long as someone does not deny the very basic doctrines of the Church - the creation, the death, the resurrection of Christ and human beings being made in the image of God - then the rest really helps but they are not the core message.
"And I haven’t found that in Ecusa or in Canada, where I was recently, they have any doubts in their understanding of God which is very different from anybody. What they have quarrelled about is the nature of sexual ethics."
So, this downplay suggests nothing to steal a church over, huh?
Father Jakes's related thread is worth a look, especially in the first half:

Stealing? Isn't there a commandment regarding that?
Keep up the good work.
