You are correct. But it was after this particular conference that other Protestants approved. It caused a domino effect.
“If I’m not mistaken, the Lambeth Conference is a gathering of Anglican/Episcopalian bishops.”
Correct.
“The rest of the Protestant world - esp Baptists and evangelicals - has nothing to do with the conference or the decisions made there.”
Yes, but you’re missing the point. The entire body of Protestant sects - every last one of them of any note - rejected artificial birth control until Lambeth. The decision of Lambeth was quickly adopted by all major Protestant groups. Then, naturally, all of those same Protestant groups embraced abortion to one extent or another as well. Hence, only the Catholic Church remains pro-life to this day in the traditional sense of no baby killing under any circumstances. All other Christian denominations support baby killing or the culture of baby killing through use of birth control or outright abortion.
Correct. But before that no protestant group had ever approved of contraception. The Gospel’s statements come with some kind of expiration, after which they are no longer valid.
Bump.
More of the same old crap.
“Anybody but us is evil”.

I had never heard of the Lambert Conference. But I am not Catholic.
“The rest of the Protestant world - esp Baptists and evangelicals - has nothing to do with the conference or the decisions made there.”
Right. Anglicans and Episcopalians are what my Episcopalian friend calls, “J.V. Catholics”, but consider themselves Protestant for some odd reason. Evangelicals generally shouldn’t be grouped with them on most issues. Baptists are not Protestants.
That's interesting because the Anglican/Episcopalian churches are the closest to the Catholic church and the Catholic church will accept their priests and allow them to become Catholic priests and remain in their married state. Something they don't even allow for their own priests. The *Protestant* denomination that gets more favor from the Catholic church than any other one.
