  • The Primus’s Radio Interview about the Columba Declaration

    It is incomprehensible to me that the Church of England establishment, including the Archbishop of Canterbury, can have claimed in the English Synod yesterday that the Scottish Episopal Church is “content” with the Columba Declaration and sees it as a positive move forward when the Primus of the Scottish Episcopal Church is describing it as “improper”, causing distress to the Scottish Episcopal Church, says it is not the way we do things in the Anglican Communion and talks of is as an example of the Church of England trying to exercise jurisdiction in Scotland.

    Here’s his radio interview today – well worth a listen.

    Can anyone explain what the Archbishop of Canterbury meant yesterday? I’m struggling to see the truth shining through his words – can anyone help me?

    Have you invited the Primus to come along with his Brompton?

    Personally, I doubt that bicycles are a helpful liturgical tool. The last time I was on one, it was in tandem with my training rector. We fell. We bled. Weeks passed before we could kneel at the daily office.

    (though perhaps if bikes still came with sparkly ribbon streamers as they did when I was 8, I could be persuaded)

      It sounds to me as though it would have been quite a good idea to have looked for a blessing before taking to the tandem.

      +Primus has been invited by facebook.

      Natch.

    Unlike with pets, bikes are less prone to accidents on the carpets.

    I had been planning to write something about praying today, but John McLuckie got there first and said it better than I did – see his post >Sometimes I Just Sit. I find the hardest part of praying to be intercessory prayer and get bewildered by those for whom it appears to be the only…
