What kind of Unity? and of Church?
Rowan Williams’ lecture in Rome marks an interesting reframing of ecumenical futures. There is, of course, the conventional RC model. The Church achieves the Unity for which Jesus prayed when every Christian in the world submits to it as a Divinely...
Seer Green: Global story, Local school
Back to Seer Green Church of England Combined School where I had great fun with music a couple of years ago, for their 150th Anniversary celebration. Singing was great, and Olwyn Oakley, children, staff and friends seem to be enjoying life. Good to s...
Ministry: Rudiments of Wisdom
30 years ordained this year, and someone asked me what I thought I’d learnt. That conversation gave birth to a few stray thoughts on the back of an envelope. It would be rather grand to call them laws of Vicaring, but here goes (in no particular or...
Global Warming reality checkpoint
Thanks to Martin Hodson, environmental scientist, for a tip off about the best book I’ve seen in the run-up to Copenhagen. There’s all kinds of srong views being expressed about global warming and our options about it. As something of a natural c...
Revision Committee: Tough Salami
The latest from the rather dry and technical sounding Revision Committee on women in the Episcopate which met yesterday contains one ecclesiologically significant discovery:After much discussion, the members of the Committee were unable to identify a...

Dear Cousins,
Please accept the god we trust in and you too will share in these advantages of our culture:
1.Eliminating God from government and replacing Him with any god you may choose will conform to our “In any gods we trust” motto.
2. M.D.’s (murdering doctors) will kill your unwanted babies as they struggle to wiggle their way into the arms of parents that don’t want them.
3. The aged, disabled and unproductive will be given the option of a dignified death by the same M.D.’s that have said an oath of preserving life.
4. Homosexuals and perverts (sexual predators) will be able to marry and adopt children that will propagate the their abnormal lifestyles. Whatever happened to common sense?
5. Weekend marriages (married on Fri and divorced on Mon) will become the new rage.
6. Legalizing prostitution will eliminate the curse of immorality and adultery.
7. The underprivileged minorities will gamble their last dinar and the ruling class will pay fewer taxes because of their squandering of money and addiction to chance.
8. We will install our “dumbing-down” Department of Education so that the elite will continue to have control and authority over lower class repressed students.
9. Pornography will be very available in every form on the pretence that this will prevent “acting out” acts of sexual offences.
10. Our capitalistic corporate leaders will teach you how to rip off millions from fellow citizens and only have small and insignificant penalties to pay without complete restitution.
11. We will export our profitable prison industry as we have become the number one nation in the world expanding industry profits from incarcerating the most number of prisoners.
12. And we will show you how you too can merchandise “Kentucky Fried Christianity” as we have so that you too will never have to be accountable to God for the 10 Commandments our country was founded on.
Judge Roy Moore told me that the question our country needs to resolve is,
“Can the State acknowledge God?”
Upon that answer, our future as a nation “under God” rests.
We the ungodly people of Amerika do strongly encourage you to accept our superior culture or we will blow your country to dust, except the oil fields of course!
Signed:
The Godless people of Amerika

PS My natural father was blown to bits in WWII defending the Judeo-Christian values of America that have been trampled on. Now, all I have left is a purple heart and the flag that draped his casket. And all America has is a country without God. This article is written in memory of my Dad.
