A snippet from the BBC News website on the vote to allow the ordaining of female bishops.

BBC religious affairs correspondent Robert Piggot said the vote had been conclusive and was accompanied by emotional scenes.

But traditionalists have warned that the decision could hasten the prospect of a split within the Church.

Conservatives who oppose the liberalisation of Church teaching on issues such as homosexuality have already set up the Fellowship of Confessing Anglicans (FoCA), which has promised to set up a council of bishops.  

What a choice of acronym :)
