In the midst of great busyness I’m catching up on a few blogs I haven’t read for a bit – and was glad to find a point of view on ++Rowan that chimes with my own perceptions (ie it isn’t all hate):
…it appears to me that this current action on the part of the wily Welshman is a diplomatic move that gives +Abuja every reason to refuse to remain in Communion with Canterbury. As the Church of Nigeria constitution has already been amended to pave the way, it is now a simple matter to stroll apart in a globally southern manner.
See in particular the comment from Nicholas the Wonder Worker below the main post. Rowan is playing a much deeper game than people give him credit for, including people one might expect to have the charity and intelligence to have perceived it.
