Summary from multiple countries, from articles in English

(article 3) One of the Church of England's most senior bishops has compared the consecration of a gay bishop in America to the invasion of Iraq. (article 9) Gene Robinson, the homosexual American prelate whose appointment in 2003 led to the present crisis in the church, has compared his torment with the taunts endured by Christ at his trial. (article 9) Conservative bishops have been accused of breaching their duties and damaging the welfare of Christians as the Archbishop of Canterbury , Dr Rowan Williams, fights back against his critics. (article 6) The Bishop of Washington, the Right Rev John Chane, a leading liberal in the Episcopal Church in the United States, accused conservatives of leading the church in a "dangerous" direction. (article 7)
