He’s shocked? What did he expect the reaction to be?
Perhaps if the magisterium were involved. Oh, wait.
In a way, the Archbishop is foreseeing the future of Great Britain. Unfortunately he is embracing it and joining hands with many who, like him, are behaving like the vanquished.
Only the vanquished yield to reparations, subdue their own religion in deference to the minority, and ultimately give in to servitude to their new leaders and their sharia laws.
He went a step to for for his normally placid, liberal followers. His miscalculation was in thinking that they would just blindly accept every moonbat idea he had. Now that he has revealed his true colors, they should throw the good Dr. out on his behind. The man is a disgrace to his faith and England.
He must be as dumb as a box of rocks if he's surprised by the reaction. (Change "Some people are" to "Dr. Williams is" in my tag line.)
So much for the "Defender of the Faith," huh?

Then did he raise on high the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch, saying, "Bless this, O Lord, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy." And the people did rejoice and did feast upon the lambs and toads and tree-sloths and fruit-bats and orangutans and breakfast cereals ... Now did the Lord say, "First thou pullest the Holy Pin. Then thou must count to three. Three shall be the number of the counting and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither shalt thou count two, excepting that thou then proceedeth to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the number of the counting, be reached, then lobbest thou the Holy Hand Grenade in the direction of thine foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."
Muslims leave their lands to get away from sharia law, and this imbecile is SHOCKED?
hmmmnn...maybe us British aren’t as accommodating of all things muslim as is often made out on this site...
Wouldn’t incorporating sharia law mean he pretty much can’t practice his religion without giving up some civil rights and/or paying fines/extra taxes?
Williams is an absolute ass and apparently answers to a God different from mine.
If the church has any integrity (and courage) it will oust this loser ASAP.
See, it’s nonsense like this that shows why there should be no state churches, archbishops, dioceses, or any of that other hierarchical junk. The Bible only speaks of local churches, and that’s all that Christianity should have - local New Testament churches with their pastors and deacons. Anything in addition to that - archbishops, dioceses, popes, and all the other trappings of apostasy - just end up creating the legalistic headaches like this that can’t be dealt with by simply disciplining the incorrigible out of the local membership. And with the local church model instituted by Christ and the apostles, if one church goes bad, then it doesn’t affect all the others.
The Archbishop of Canterbury soon to be morphing into the Ayatollah of Canterbury.
Three cheers for the see of Rochester! St. John Fisher was Bishop Nazir-Ali’s noble and martyred predecessor...
Isn’t it the calling of a Christian leader to spread the Gospel to those who do not know the way?
The Archpinhead is so out of touch with reality,he doesn’t even know that grooming and haircuts are commercially available.
