THE LIBDEMS AT PRAYER?
The old joke about us used to be that the Church of England was the Tory Party at prayer. Given current news, wouldn't it be more accurate to say the C of E is the LibDems at prayer? Oh dear. I despair of this good Church sometimes.

More on this to follow soon . . .
Updated: Although an older post and not related to the current happenings, LimeyPundity has a great post about pacifism and Christianity. Other commentary so far seems to share my negative first impression. Via Stephen Pollard, she doesn't seem very impressed, as does Laban Tall, who links to Thinking Anglicans, a sort of news weblog about C of E affairs (looks good), who have a round up of related news stories.

oops, looks like I'm not quite on top of the technicalities here, but the deleted post above was meant to be:
Though undoubtedly a lot of my friends and relatives would welcome it, I am in no way a LibDem. The "us" in my posting refered to the CofE, as in me being an Anglican.
Right, hope that's sorted now.
