DR JOHN SENTAMU, the Archbishop of York, defended the Church’s stance on same-sex marriage today during a heated debate with Piers Morgan on Good Morning Britain.

The lengthy exchange came after the religious leader appeared on the ITV show to voice his support for Remain in the upcoming EU Referendum.However, in light of the Orlando nightclub massacre over the weekend, Piers soon challenged him on his position against same-sex marriage; pointing out that Islamic leaders have also been challenged over the issue in recent days.

“You can still have your view in terms of the teaching of the church position on marriage and still be intolerant of anybody who’s homophobic,” the Uganda-born 67-year-old said.
