FReepmail sionnsar if you want on or off this moderately high-volume ping list (typically 3-9 pings/day).
This list is pinged by sionnsar, Huber and newheart.

Dear sionnsar,

I'd never heard that the Archbishop of Canterbury is sixth in line to the succession to the British crown. Is that really true?

From what I can see on the Internet, the Archbishop of Canterbury isn't in the line of succession, at least through the first 50 places or so.

Hmmmm....I remember reading that there was a bishop named Suerbeer, Albrecht Suerbeer, who was once bishop in Armagh and then Prussia. He was German, yet he was bishop in Ireland and then Prussia (which was only partially German at the time). Another bishop, nearly two centuries later, was bishop of Riga (with only a minority German population) and then bishop of a city in France. He himself was German.

Why does any of that matter? If your Church is truly universal than race and nationalism really don't have much to do with it. Yes, race and nationality matter, but not more than the faith itself. Sadly even the Catholic Church has become too "sensitive" about hierarchical appointments.
