Preferment and promotion are unavailable in Wales & Llandaff unless ++Bazza's micro-managed line is toed unquestioningly and unhesitatingly, the alternatives being 'tough' or unexplained resignation within 2 months. Surely you've heard the latest Llandaff grapevine whispers that, having finally 'retired' the long serving and faithful Diocesan registrar (allegedly over an investigation and report into the issue of monies allegedly skimmed and diverted from the Organ appeal that his Darkness desperately needs to conceal from the pew-sitters) that the new Disocesan Registrar is to be Mrs ++Bazza ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4019954714374602353.post-39043168998347272712013-10-13T17:35:55.353+01:002013-10-13T17:35:55.353+01:00I think we need to wait and see what the new bisho...I think we need to wait and see what the new bishops of FIF come up with. The one thing that was missing form their CVs pre appointment was membership of FIF and I suppose that has been rectified but it does make you wonder why members of FIF failed to get the pointed hat!Joseph Golightlynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4019954714374602353.post-72238214392755724842013-10-13T12:45:11.112+01:002013-10-13T12:45:11.112+01:00Beach Boy, your cheap gibe about Lambeth personnel...Beach Boy, your cheap gibe about Lambeth personnel is at odds with the valuable ecumenical work done there by the new Bishop of Ebbsfleet and the Bishop of St Asaph neither of whom was a political appointee to further the work of a political master.<br />If the Church of England and the Church in Wales had shown the same magnanimity as Pope Benedict in creating an Ordinariate the Anglican Church would not be in the mess that it is. In stead we have the Archbishop of Wales and his followers along with WATCH and the like in England spreading falsehoods about a church within a church and how the authority of women would be compromised if the promised provision were to be continued.<br />It should be obvious that in the cause of unity, feminism comes a very poor second to ecumenism.AncientBritonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12357913998344777403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4019954714374602353.post-2110279688324391132013-10-13T08:03:39.113+01:002013-10-13T08:03:39.113+01:00Be it 1994 or 2009, the past is a another country,...Be it 1994 or 2009, the past is a another country, they do things differently there. The best historical research or reminiscence simply notes that difference, so it can impact on our present. In 2009 the Church of England was paying two PEVs to spend a significant time briefing against her in Rome, a Le Carresque twist which even you would have to admit was hardly in the the spirit of the 1994 Measure. Nor did that Measure envisage seeing the post of PEV as a convenient park for Lambeth personnel whose time was long since up.Beach Boynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4019954714374602353.post-28788242255351667962013-10-12T17:35:50.553+01:002013-10-12T17:35:50.553+01:00Anon - I totally agree, having heard the chap bang...Anon - I totally agree, having heard the chap bang on in numerous sermons along the lines you describe, I am of the opinion that he is a complete second-rater, real B-team material.Ben Hooknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4019954714374602353.post-67195801442515229582013-10-12T17:21:05.515+01:002013-10-12T17:21:05.515+01:00Ass Bishop’s contribution is entirely consistent w...Ass Bishop’s contribution is entirely consistent with his unimpressive ministry in this diocese. The usual features are excessive name-dropping, always prefixed with something about John Habgood, and a plug for one or more of his tedious books.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
