GROWING A PAIR
Christopher Johnson, Midwest Conservative Journal, 11/16/2006

Rowan Williams does something he's not used to doing.  My gracious lord of Canterbury puts his foot down.

Prince Charles’ hopes of a multi-faith coronation suffered a blow when the Church of England asserted the historic importance of a solely Christian service when he becomes King.

In a rebuke to the Prince’s hopes of inviting Muslims, Hindus and others to take an equal role in Westminster Abbey, the Church declared that Archbishop of Canterbury Dr Rowan Williams will design the coronation service.

The highly unusual statement was the Church’s first official pronouncement on how the coronation will be handled and it comes amid intensifying controversy over the role of non-Christian faiths and non-Anglican Christian denominations.

Dr Williams, however, has insisted that the Prince must restrain his interest in other faiths and stay within the ’constitutional framework’ that makes him Supreme Governor of the Church of England.

The intervention from the Church made plain that Charles will be on his own if he tries to introduce other faiths into the religious coronation service at the Abbey.

Thanks to Jim.

I always thought Chuckie was the loon of the family.

But he has well and truly lost it this time. He is nutz!

Some Christian groups remain unhappy that the Prince is thought to be considering a multi-faith event to follow the coronation.

I have no problem if he wants to have a party after the coronation in which he can ask people of ther faiths to participate. Just like when people get married: the church wedding and the reception. The church wedding has to be a Christian wedding, not mixed ceremony. The reception, well, just like any other party, it can be anything (decent).

Am I missing something? Isn't is Mother still alive and in no evidence of declining health? Isn't this rather bad form to be discussing his coronation while she's upright?
