Sometimes we lose focus, sometimes we miss the opportunity, and sometimes we are just plain stupid.

I see they are now referring to Sarah Mullaly as the Dhimmi Bishop after this poorly thought out decision to wear a garment submitting herself to Islam. To subjugate herself in such a way Is in my opinion shameful. Her lack of theology, and dare I say integrity, is telling.
Thankfully i only have to acknowledge her as a legal officer holder as head of a diocese and not spiritually a Bishop.
Thank heavens she is not my Diocesan head, and heaven help the CofE if she ever gets elected to Canterbury.
Well said, Fr. K. So, Mrs Mullaly is referred to as a dhimmi ?. Then, by implication, her jurisdiction is, for the time being, at least spiritually, an ”Islamic state.” ?
I am glad that you are outside of this state. At the rate things are going in the CoE, and proven by the recent appointments made to the top, even a mule (in every sense of the word) could be consecrated and installed the legal office holder and diocesan. Preventing this happening to the Sees of Canterbury and Yoke are two big challenges before the English church.
Saint Paul to Timothy (Ist Timothy 3) “The saying is trustworthy: If anyone aspires to the office of overseer, he desires a noble task. 2 Therefore an overseer[a] must be above reproach, the husband of one wife,[b] sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, 3 not a drunkard, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money. 4 He must manage his own household well, with all dignity keeping his children submissive, 5 for if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how will he care for God’s church?”
The Bible is our guide in matters spiritual and ecclesial. The Church of England has always dabbled in politics, both secular and sacred. Now though we see the leadership openly worshipping at the shrines of Political Correctness and Humanism.
Our Lord Jesus, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, has been quietly removed from the established Church. The doors are being thrown wide open to the followers of Islam for prayer and recitations from the Qu’ran . The same Islam that in Muslim nations openly persecutes Christians and blows up their churches..
How ignorant can you be? How misguided, how indifferent to our brothers and sisters in Christ who are dying for love of Him..
So are you saying they are worshipping the God of the Bible? If so, I agree with Gavin.
So how does that reconcile with Islam worshipping a Bedouin moon deity?
You might know also the Tibhirine monks, led by Dom Christian de Chergé, who engaged in interfaith activities while living in Algeria, and were eventually martyred by Islamic fundamentalists. Christian de Chergé does have a moving Spiritual Testament, where he speaks of love and respect for Muslims, that I invited anyone to read. I am sceptical about many aspects of Islam and their influence, but I generally speaking agree with “Nostra Aetate” too. I disapprove bizarre interfaith actions, like inviting Muslims to pray in a Cathedral and stuff like that.
16 And he brought me into the inner court of the house of the Lord. And behold, at the entrance of the temple of the Lord, between the porch and the altar, were about twenty-five men, with their backs to the temple of the Lord, and their faces toward the east, worshiping the sun toward the east. 17 Then he said to me, “Have you seen this, O son of man? Is it too light a thing for the house of Judah to commit the abominations that they commit here, that they should fill the land with violence and provoke me still further to anger? Behold, they put the branch to their[c] nose. 18 Therefore I will act in wrath. My eye will not spare, nor will I have pity. And though they cry in my ears with a loud voice, I will not hear them.”
Its curious that Durham Cathedral has embraced the gay agenda. I would be curious to know what the Muslims who worshipped there think about that, since they also disapprove homosexual relationships.
The bishop of Durham used to be the great theologian N. T. Wright. What happened to his diocese really shows the decadence of the Church of England.
Remember the fall of Constantinople when the Shahada was read from the pulpit and thereby instantly converted the Hagia Sophia into a mosque. In Islamic thought this will apply to any Church.
So glad that it is Bishop Gavin the media in the UK are seeking after for a theologically-well-informed and respectable comment/commentary on the London Bishopess’s and Darlington Vicaress’s debacle of demeaning the Christian faith and testimony.
It’s a disgrace that these two, ministerially unrefined and theologically uneducated phony interfaith clowns, are allowed to act this way!
As i’d noted before, ACN has not reported on these two lousy interfaith incidents; Canterbury is tight-lipped; and, Durham is on damage control.
I haven’t seen anything reported outside the UK either. Had the secular media had picked up on the real implications of these incidents, they would have had a heyday ridiculing the Christian faith. So far, they haven’t. Thank God!
That was a very gracious and fascinating interview with Nick Ferrari. Would AI post the link to the audio? It’s well-worth listening to the short piece.
