Anglicans Can Reject Women Priests

London's Daily Telegraph got the headline exactly right: "Anglicans Can Reject Women Priests," they proclaimed in an article posted January 10. Click here to read the entire article.

I wonder if the Archbishop of Canterbury is feeling proud now of the Communion that he is nominally "leading." He and the Panel of Reference may be proud of the way they are pondering how many angels can dance on the head of the pin. Perhaps they are proud of the deep theological analysis in which they are engaged.

But the secular world is hearing the message loud and clear, and the message is: women are dispensable. The Archbishop of Canterbury is quite happy to sacrifice women and gays on the altar of "unity." So is the Panel of Reference.

I wait to see how our Presiding Bishop and Executive Council will respond.
