“Archbishop Rowan Williams is too nice for his own good. Instead of meekly sharing that ignominious platform with the poachers, he should have issued a counter-challenge: “Send us your women, yearning to be priests, who could make a strong case for being the better-qualified fifty percent of humanity; send us your decent priests, sick of trying to defend the indefensible; send them all,”

I wonder why they overlooked this part of the article?

We tried. But they don't want to leave. They want to stay in the Roman Catholic Church and undermine it from the inside. Poor Dawkins missed it by THIS much...again.

That offer has been on the table for some time. We get the faithful Anglicans; they get the crazy 'sisters', the pro-aborts, the Liberation Theologians and a heretic to be named later.

They won't bite. We wish they would.
