"Church must make women bishops, say MPs"

By Rick Garnett

Fascinating.  It's obvious (I hope!) that it would be Sedition-Act-level unconstitutional if a government in the United States purported to require a religious community to make anyone a bishop whom that community did not want (for any reason) to make a bishop.  But, of course, in the United Kingdom, things are more . . . complicated.

Not sure how different, Rick, if the claims of scholarly writers who are adamantly opposed to the ministerial exemption are taken seriously! So far, they haven't been, to the courts' great credit.
