Bishop is welcome

HOW AWFUL to read Ronald Rodger Caseby's diatribe about the incoming Bishop of Chichester and traditionalists in the C of E, members of a church enshrined in tradition. By whose authority does Mr Caseby represent '˜the majority of worshipping Anglicans' and also '˜Chichester Anglicans'?

The man and woman on the Clapham omnibus would surely endorse neither his blinkered view nor his choice of words.

On second thoughts, they probably couldn’t care a toss what he or I write!

Dr Martin Warner, with his talent and experience, should be welcomed as bishop into the ever-broadening church – a church broad enough to encompass even Mr Caseby’s ego.

With supporters like Mr Caseby, Anglican priestesses don’t need enemies.
