I actually met and spoke to an English Anglican scholar (won't identify him more) yesterday who knows the Archbishop personally. He writes him regularly from the states and lets him know what the real story is going on here. The ABC is a shy scholar, and had his office foisted upon him--he'd be much more comfortable writing those kind of long complex books few ever read--and apparently the way he's been trying to keep things together is by not saying much, according to the scholar. I asked this insider whether Williams is an evangelical, and no, he is not, however, he is fairly orthodox...which is very good news for us.

His earlier comments about gays are way overdrawn by the homosexual lobby in the church--as they were speculative, and apparently just saying that there might be something redeemable about the loving part of homosexual relationships. (and hey, isn't the friendship side of even relationship that involves perverted sex, acceptable? It's the sex which is twisted, not having a friend.) This is a very different thing than promoting homosexual relationships--and stimulating debate is the pervue of scholars. Perhaps evangelicals, like the man I met, have had a good influence on Williams, as it appears like they have--moving him away from dangerous waters.

We really need to sincerly pray for the Archbishop. Christ is leading His church!
