Quote:Fourteen retired bishops have accused Church of England leaders of not listening to the voices of gay Christians.
The bishops said in an open letter that a new report on the Church's stance on homsexuality tells of gay people's pain, but has no "authentic voices".
The former bishop of Worcester said some people felt "betrayed".
The letter comes ahead of a debate at the general synod on Wednesday, which includes the issue of gay marriage.
The Church published an official report on sexuality last month after three years of "shared conversations" with the LGBT community and other Christians.
The report maintained the position that marriage in church should remain the lifelong union of a man and a woman.
