Into the long grass?

The Salvation Army's International Headquarters published material in 2018 entitled Let's Talk..About Sexuality and Relationships.   So here we are in 2025 and we are informed that in the United Kingdom & Ireland Territory there is to be an eighteen month period for faciliated conversations on the issues of bride price, dowry, divorce & remarriage, married life, partner abuse, pornography, same-sex relationships, sex outside marriage and singleness.

To what end is all this talking directed?  What action may ensue?  A clue from this week's Salvationist. 

"International policy isn't changing as a result of these conversations, but they have the power to change relationships at a local level, to impact how people live their lives and relate to each other."

No encourgement then for those seeking equality of treatment for LGBTQ+ individuals apart from let's be nice to each other. Shameful.
