Multiple bishops in the Church of England publicly called for the institution to begin conducting same-sex marriages last week.
The Right Rev. Dr. Steven Croft, who serves as bishop of Oxford, became the first serving senior bishop in the Church of England to affirm homosexual unions last week, according to The Sunday Times.
Croft's affirmation was echoed by the Right Rev. Dr. John Inge, the bishop of Worcester, and the Right Rev. Martin Gorick, the bishop of Dudley, both of whom are also high-ranking prelates.
Croft, who sits in the House of Lords, said he once held an "orthodox" Christian view regarding sex and marriage but has since "slowly but surely experienced a change of heart and mind."
The bishop maintained that it is "unjust" for the Church of England to keep refusing to marry gay couples, claiming that the historical Christian position has engendered "manifest unfairness, anger and alienation among a whole generation."
