Bow down to the UN Millennium Development Goals!

I can be a little slow. But it’s become clear to me that the UN Millennium Development Goals have become the pet idol of TEC PB Schori and many likeminded liberal Anglican leaders. Heck, she says “Millennium Development Goals” more than Grizz said “reconciliation.” Well, maybe not that much, but you get the picture. Her missive on the upcoming House of Bishops meeting is but the latest example.

Some of the MDGs may be worthy aims. But good things can be turned into idols. And I’m convinced that is the case here.

Besides, who said the UN should set the agenda for the church?
