It's not about church attendance. The C of E is the "established church" and exists for various official ceremonial functions. They are government subsidized and do not depend on donations.

Their "God" is a metaphor for British ruling class interests. Any changes represent changing fashions among their ruling class.

Any believers in Christ left long ago.

Jesus Christ always referred to him as “MY FATHER”

They're pretty much already there.

Pardon me, but imagining God is ball-less brought them to this dilemma in the first place.

It may suggest that priests stop using the male pronouns “He” and “Him” when referring to God in some prayers, or even that they can drop the famous phrase “Our Father” from the start of the Lord’s Prayer.

Changing the Lord's Prayer - which is specifically spelled out in Scripture.

Some "church" this is that this could even come up for discussion.

How does one boost church attendance by catering to 1% or less of the population?

Catering to trans or homosexuals is just a smokescreen used by athiests, their Tower of Babel to delegitimize religion and the Bible. Athiests would prefer ‘natural law’ while conveniently ignoring that natural law is, in its basest form, brutal survival of the fittest tribe and individuals within that tribe

“For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness ‘suppress the truth’.....” Romans 1:18

I believe the upsidedown world we’re living in now is Gods Judgement - He’s lhanded us over to our sins and we’re seeing the results of that.

The Middle Easterners are using the grammy event to show how corrupt and evil the USA is on their websites, twitter etc.
