2. Does anybody else see the nasty racism inherent in the attitude towards the African Anglicans? They're "tribal"; they're "intolerant"; they are ignorant and incapable of handling sophisticated negotiations -- they have to import "conservative First World forces" to do that for them. What hubris! (I don't know anything about Abp Akinola's C.V., but I would guess that he's quite well educated. He's articulate and writes well.)
When reading propaganda such as this I remember that it's the liberals who want to change the rules, not conservatives. Conservatives haven't left the church; the church has left them.
