The Church of England, one of the national churches within the broader Anglican communion, has its synod this summer, and the word is that the synod will approve women bishops. Currently, the CofE has women priests, but not bishops.
This is causing tremendous pressure within the Church of England, which is wary of walking the same course as the American Episcopal Church, which has gone for women priests and bishops, gay clergy, and in one famous instance, a divorced gay bishop living with a man.
The question is not merely one of sexuality, it is also one of Scriptural interpretation -- given Scripture's clear prohibitions against homosexual acts, which are considered gravely immoral, it calls into question how the Anglican church interprets Scripture -- as the definitive word of God, or, as they are fond of saying of the Pirate Code in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, "more like guidelines." For a Protestant church, these are not merely academic issues.
It is rumored that if the CofE accepts women bishops, a number of its bishops will consider crossing the Tiber. It appears that a number of bishops are already in talks with Rome to that effect.
