Why are we wasting time?

I listened to Andrew Marr this morning. He is always worth listening to. But he had a bishop of the Church of England, or rather the Anglican communion, talking about the current debates going on in the church.
Now, whatever the rights or wrongs of these debates my problem is a) where is Christ in all this? and b) the world is heading for Armageddon and we are debating sex in various forms! Why? There really are far more important things to worry about and get really het up about.

My concern with a) is that Christ seems to have very little if any say in these matters. They are topics of discussion for those whose first priority is their own self indulgence and gratification. If they really were followers of the Nazarene he would be their first port of call and his reputation would be their first concern.
Instead we see his name and honour dragged through the mud for what? For people who are so consumed with their own ego massaging that the real issues are being overlooked and ignored.
If we are really serious, as Christians, then Christ has to be our one and only concern.
Every thought, word, and action would be referred to him and their consequences for him would motivate the same. My heart grieves for the dishonour to his name and the totally distorted picture presented to none Christians.
Time is running out - that must be obvious to all but those whose minds, souls and consciences have been sealed with a red-hot iron, many of them in prestigious posts in the church - and we must bend our energies and efforts to The Great Commission, not to contemplating our navels and disappearing up our own bottoms!
