Remember Soong-Chan Rah? I sure do. Back in 2017, I noticed he was going to keynote a Matthew 25 Gathering in my Anglican Church in North America (ACNA). Curious, I did a little research on him, and the rest is history. I exposed some of his background. Others found more and protested, and eventually he was quietly removed from the program. Here are my posts about the matter back then.
One would think that less than four years later, ACNA’s dioceses would exercise enough wisdom not to have him as a focus of any program. Especially since he has continued his woke act, including lovely quotes like this:
“The United States of America does not hold a morally exceptional position greater than Nazi Germany. We are not more just. Our sense of equality is not any superior. Our nation has never been Christian. We have just won our wars. And therefore, for centuries, we wrote our own history. And that has proven to be incredibly dangerous.” (Unsettling Truths: The Ongoing, Dehumanizing Legacy of the Doctrine of Discovery)
Oh, that’s right. One of the dioceses in ACNA is the Diocese of Churches for the Sake of Others (C4SO), not exactly a font of wisdom.
C4SO not only has a congregation giving up Whiteness for Lent, one of the diocese’s programs is reading Rah for Lent with the apparent blessing of C4SO itself.
Now perhaps the diocese is so clueless about Rah, even after 2017, that this is only an honest mistake, a lapse of judgement.
