Dear Rowan . . .
Dear Rowan,
I can’t help but notice you’d rather bash us eeeevil imperialistic Americans than fulfill the responsibilities of your office to defend the faith and the church from apostasies and heresies. Now, don’t deny it. The Bishop of New Hampshire might as well deny he’s gay. It’s kind of hard to miss -- imperialistic Americans are bad; heretic Episcopalian Americans . . . get invited to tea at Lambeth. Yeah, it’s that obvious.
But hey, I don’t blame you. Bashing eeeevil imperialistic Americans is more fun than dealing with heresy and apostasy.
So I have a friendly suggestion.
Why not leave the Archbishopric of Canterbury and join The Guardian as an op-ed writer? There, bashing eeeevil imperialistic Americans is part of the job description.
You’ll be a lot happier. And you’ll improve both institutions, too.
You’re welcome. Always glad to help.
Very sincerely,
Mark

I think maybe +Cantuar sees the coming (at his hand) Anglican Communion disintegration and his - as a consequence - being out of a job (AoC), and may be jonesing after the position of Secretary General of the U.N. Hey Rowan, do us a favor, see if Kofi Annan is ready to retire, and have him put a few good words in for ya.
