Is there no end to this Lunatic’s idiocy?
I'm sure this will go over well among his tens of millions of followers in the Global South, where concern with survival is a real, personal, day-to-day issue and not a genteel parlor-game abstraction.
No mention of the Birth of Christ. Just a woman and a kid. But remember, the Archbishop of Canterbury is a Druid, not a Christian, so Jesus is a nobody to him--or should we say, a mere legend.
Good grief! The ECUSA has been committing suicide for years, now it appears the Anglicans are losing their collective minds as well.
It’s starting to be embarrassing to be an Episcopalian. I don’t think I’m alone in that.
And they wonder why the Church of England is withering. If the scripture doesn't hold answers for a bishop talking to a child about mundane problems, then this branch of the church deserves to be pruned off and cast into the fire. It is obviously devoid of fruit.
Someone needs to tell this little gnome that greed (as in those of odd, quaint, and deviant sexual persuasions wanting what they want and wanting it now!!) not only could but is wrecking the Anglican Communion.
Get drunk, chop his wife’s head off, and get married again before the corpse is cold?
Honestly, the guy looks like he hasn’t had a proper bowel-movement in a month.
And...it isn’t human greed that’ll destroy the earth, although that is part of it. It’s SIN. The only thing that’ll save you from sin is Jesus.
I wonder when the last time he preached about the Name or the Blood of Christ...if ever?
“It’s starting to be embarrassing to be an Episcopalian.”
“Starting”?? You must have a high tolerance for apostasy and heresy.
I can’t stand this Archbishop for his other views, but a lot of what he said is accurate. It’s pretty well-acknowledged that Jesus was not born on Dec. 25th. That was the time for Mithra’s birth and even that was probably selected for its proximity to the Winter Solstice.
There is a ‘rich tapestry’ of human history and just because many legends, myths or lies are told, does not mean the truth isn’t more interesting or that we have to sacrifice all belief because a few details may be wrong.
Williams has apparently been taking counsel and advice from former New Jersey Episcopal Bishop John Shelby Spong. Spong’s schtick was that the Nativity story and Christianity as a whole must be demythologized and replaced with secular humanist dogma. With crackpots like Williams and Spong leading the worldwide Anglican movement, is there any wonder that the church is but a shadow of what it was just 40 years ago, or that what remains is now splintering?
Anglicanism is growing and strongest in Africa, where church leaders can’t afford to sell their souls to the gods of relativism, secularism, and collectivism. Rather than pointing fingers at the “greedy,” perhaps Williams should examine himself and ask why he has found it necessary take up a fifth column through the Faith of our fathers.
An Anglican church that makes its credo the abandoning of the Word of God will continue its loss of membership so long as it continues on that path.
The secular dick head is a senile moron.
Why hasn’t this apostate fool been fired?
This is another example of why the liberal, apostate denominations are hemorrhaging members like crazy. Or why, in countries like Britain where there are few non-State church alternatives, many simply leave forever.
Gad, I would’ve puked right then and there, if I’d attended that service. Bad enough to have a Green Santa (as we did here in Los Angeles last week) nagging shoppers at the mall not to use plastic. Pretty cheery for the kids, I bet. This church is in the fast lane toward destruction. Amazing to watch.
Anglicans are fractured. Unlike other Catholics the Anglican Catholic wants nothing to do with Feminazis or “Queers”. Therefore, Rowan Williams is past history. The reorganization of Anglicanism is amazing. It is Traditional Christianity and
based on the teachings of the “Church” before the Great Split and the Puritan revolutions. Goldstategop, you are a good person. Let see all Christians as Brothers and Sisters. Support all in the name of Jesus Christ!
His Church is disintegrating before everyone’s eyes, and all he can think of to give a sermon on for Christmas is freaking global warming.
What a putz.
