Gender- Neutral God:-
The Church of England is planning a major transformation in its functioning as a step towards gender justice. According to recent reports the clergy assembly of the Church of England is considering reformative changes in the English prayers pronounced which will be implemented this spring itself under a ‘project on gendered language’.
What Are These Reformative Changes?
The Church of England has proposed to identify a single gender- neutral God. To acknowledge this gender- neutral God, changes in language will be formulated such as:
Gender- Neutral God
- Not using the male pronouns like ‘he/him’ in prayers and using a gender- neutral pronoun instead.
- Removal of words like ‘Our Father’ at the start of prayers.
- Blessing services have also been started recently for gay couples.
