20. The Church of England is not a monolithic unity
It is perhaps the most diverse religious body on the planet.

You do realise that gay marriages are celebrated in many parish churches? Just to take one example.

Even among some of the highly conservative elements the hatred demonstrated by the American religious-right is totally absent. I know of several C.ofE. Priests whose theological views are ultra-traditional, but who don't bat an eyelid at gay couples (of whom there are a goodly number in the congregation).
