No offence to my friends and colleagues up north, but there's only room for 
one Synod in southeast Australia! <grin>

Church leaders vote against gay ministers
QUEENSLAND, Australia --Leaders of the Uniting Church in southeast 
Australia have rejected their national body's decision to allow gays to be 
ordained as ministers, ABC News Australia reported. About 100 church 
members met in Beenleigh south of Brisbane and voted to maintain the status 
quo, which prevents gays from holding any positions of leadership, ABC News 
reported. Rev. Ray Reddicliffe says parishioners wanted to express their 
strong disappointment and deep regret. While it is conceivable that could 
happen, I think at this stage it's very clear that most people, that's not 
how they would like to see it,he told ABC News.
