Ooops, sorry John+.  I see that Erich+ has already gotten to you and
that you've repented, recanted, and corrected your ways!  And who said
the German branch of the Inquisition is dead!!!

Erich+

Indeed we do!   And I am remiss in not making clear with "Archbishop of
CANTERBURY"

As I wrote my rant, and the one that followed, I kept thinking of him
and
our other good leaders.  The problem is that for most of the world they
are
invisible.  Fortunately, God can and does use them and their work, done
almost entirely behind the scenes, in powerful ways.  But the problem
remains that the prominent Anglican leaders are inferior and detrimental
to
the Anglican image, and thereby to our work.

Thanks for the positive reminder!

John+
