I am not an Anglican, nor do I wish to start a doctrinal dispute with anyone. That said, the following struck me as odd:

. . . they will find that we, the despicable revisionists, also have reserved seats, and that we all shall be seated next to Jesus’ favorite guests: publicans, prostitutes and sinners who, like us, do not trust in their own righteousness, but in God’s manifold and great mercies.

As I recall, Jesus commanded everyone -- including publicans and prostitutes -- to repent and sin no more. Has the good bishop forgotten that? Or does he consider that part of Jesus' message to be optional?

He wants us to believe that what he is up to is not sin. Yep, and he didn't inhale either I guess.
