So perhaps Rowan Williams is being a bit sly here.

It is very inspiring to hear how aptly and forthrightly he skewers the consciences of British Christians (including their Catholic bishops!), often with their own words (or those of their famous countryman, Blessed John Henry). He truly has a God-given knack for getting to the meat of the matter. I hope & pray that his brief visit has profound and far-reaching repercussions.
