The Briefing Headlines Aug 24

The Briefing Topic

There’s been a major split in Australia’s Anglican Church; conservatives who oppose same-sex marriage have launched a breakaway movement led by former Sydney Archbishop Glenn Davies. They aim to lure Anglicans who are unhappy with progressive bishops.

Small, localised breakaway churches aren’t new, but there’s never been any with this sort of scope or involving such senior members of the established church before. We’re joined by Dr Renae Barker, an active member of the Anglican Church and a lecturer on law and religion at the University of Western Australia.

In today’s Briefing, we discuss why homosexuality continues to divide Christians.

Today's Headlines:

- Scomo’s secret appointments were valid
- John Farnham in ICU
- Kyrgios faces two lawsuits
- Andrew Tate deplatformed
