In a message to the new principal leader of the Church of England and head of the worldwide Anglican Communion, Pope Francis wrote: “I thank you for the kind words contained in your message to me at my election, and I wish in turn to offer my greetings and best wishes on the occasion of your enthronement at Canterbury Cathedral.†The Pope’s message continued: “The pastoral ministry is a call to walk in fidelity to the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. Please be assured of my prayers as you take up your new responsibilities, and I ask you to pray for me as I respond to the new call that the Lord has addressed to me. “I look forward to meeting you in the near future, and to continuing the warm fraternal relations that our predecessors enjoyed.†Click here to read the rest of the article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Byzantine Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Umm... The purpose of the drummers and dancing is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apotheoun Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 Why are some church leaders so obsessed with drums? They want to be relevant, and evidently to some people drums equal relevance. :paco: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dUSt Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 They want to be relevant, and evidently to some people drums equal relevance. :paco: Obviously, they are clearly not up to the times. A turntable and a Macbook would have been more suitable for displaying relevance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't these fools know drums are thousands of years old? That doesn't strike me as "new" and "relevant". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure in the Anglican church that is coming soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-fish Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I am sure in the Anglican church that is coming soon. Only at homosexual weddings. The new archbishop is for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IgnatiusofLoyola Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I doubt that the drums were included to be "relevant," but instead to recognize the large number of Anglicans in Africa. I sincerely hope that this thread was not posted in order to make fun of the Anglicans. Whether or not you agree with their some of their views, they are still your Christian brothers and sisters, and you will be sharing heaven with Anglicans.

It was intended as an informative thread, which like most other threads here ends up with humor in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is that the new Archbishop has said that he is willing to "revisit" the current view of the Anglican church that prohibits homosexual weddings. Not quite the same as being "for it." But the other replies are funnier, if that is what is important here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, I do not think the Church of England has serious intentions to hold firm on any of their official beliefs. I think that they and the rest of the Anglican Communion, with the possible exception of the Africans, consider everything to be up for debate and potentially revisable.
