A favourite book found at @stbotolphcam book sale. Late Victorian imperial memoirs are a hoot. I started humming 'Shooting Tigers out in Indja' when I picked it up, and lo and behold, the first page does not disappoint
St Botolph's book sale is now OPEN. Come and get some bargains! We have so many books we are having to use every square inch of space. The art books are on the pulpit steps:

You’d expect a booksale on behalf of St Botolph, patron saint of travellers, to be well equipped with travel guides. Come and have a look at our booksale on Saturday 11-4.30pm. Coffee, tea and cakes too.

Nope. You're nasty because you want to drive anyone out of the C of E who holds the orthodox view that was upheld by the Church universally for almost all of its history and which is still held by the vast majority of Christians worldwide. Your intolerance is the problem

I don’t think the current settlement in the C of E regarding female bishops is perfect. I don’t think anyone does. But I don’t want to see the traditionalists forced out, and the C of E would be significantly diminished if they were.
I’m probably going to regret getting into this, because I dislike fighting with people on here, but it seems worth saying.
Someone is inevitably going to say that no-one is talking about “forcing them out”, but making someone’s position untenable, when you know that’s what you’re doing, comes to the same thing.
A “conservatism” so new and presentist that it doesn’t even know its ancient lineage. This liberal is going to be very upset when he finds out.
Major conservative institutions are hiring individuals on the right who claim to be conservative but are openly hostile to free markets. Instead of fighting to cut the size and scope of the federal government, they are happy to utilize big government to achieve their preferred…
