  1. theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/f. "After her elevation to #archbishop was announced last year, it emerged that [Sarah] Mullally had been accused of improperly handling a complaint against a #priest in #London in 2020 & the allegation had not been adequately investigated. Last month, the C of E said it would take no further action on the matter."

  2. In 2026, the country has entered “the most profound & searing debate about the #moral foundation for America’s actions in the world since the end of the Cold War,” read the unusual statement issued by #Cardinal Blase Cupich, #archbishop of #Chicago; Cardinal Robert McElroy, archbishop of #Washington; & Cardinal Joseph Tobin, archbishop of #Newark.

  3. Blimey.

    I look away for a couple of hours and return to a new Archbishop of Canterbury.

    A WOMAN. HOORAY!

    This is AMAZING news and really quite the surprise. The CofE, being progressive and modern, whodathunkit?

  4. News is breaking that Dame Sarah Mullalley is chosen as the new #Archbishop of #Canterbury, the first time a woman has occupied the position since Pope Gregory established it with Saint Augustine of Canterbury.

  5. Dame Sarah Mullally becomes first woman #Archbishop of #Canterbury in Church of England's history - bbc.co.uk/news/live/c0r0201jgd excellent, never a dull moment these days

  6. I'm slightly in fear of tomorrow's announcement of the new Archbishop of Canterbury.

    Not just because this is a difficult and tricky time for both the CofE and the Anglican Communion.

    But because there is a very good chance my own superb bishop is high up the short-list. While she would be very very good appointment to Lambeth, she would be desperately missed here in the diocese. #FediChurch #Archbishop #Anglicam #ChurchOfEngland

  7. The #Archbishop of Cologne, #Cardinal Woelki, was found guilty of neglecting his #duties in connection with sexual #abuse. This is also punishable under canon #law. Who else believes that Cardinal Woelki is no longer acceptable? Please sign the petition to #Pope #LeoXIV: chng.it/dpVT4yV8LJ

  8. #OTD in 1381: The beginning of the Peasants' Revolt in England.

    Wat Tyler and Jack straw led their band of rebels against King Richard II. It would ultimately end with the beheading of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Simon Sudbury and the death of most of the rebels.

  10. CW: The son of Anglican Church abuser John Smyth QC was one of his earliest victims. Warning, this report contains extremely distressing details.

    A terrible story but compelling.

    ‘The Makin review detailed Smyth's horrific abuse of those he met at public schools and Christian summer camps. What is less well known, is how Smyth senior controlled and abused his own family, who are only now facing up to the devastating toll on their lives.’

  11. Another churchly #ChildKiller retires behind smoke and mirrors: The Case of #JustinWelby.

    Raping a child and protecting those who do is as Christian as crucifixion. So no doubt the world is emitting a big yawn today as Justin Welby resigns as #Archbishop of Canterbury after being caught covering for his sadistic child-torturing friend John Smyth.

    After all, #Anglican and #Catholic clergy are required by their standing policy of #CrimenSollicitationas to do precisely what Welby did and protect #ChildRapists in their church.

    In its typical facile, dissimulating manner, the media has treated Welby’s protection of the brutal child-rapist John Smyth as a one-time, episodic event. In fact, Archbishop Welby is himself a notorious repeat offender who has blood on his hands. The malfeasance of this former #oil company executive turned Anglican #cleric goes way back.

    During the first accredited excavation of children’s #MassGraves at the murderous Anglican #Mohawk #ResidentialSchool in #Brantford, #Ontario during 2011, Archbishop Welby ordered all the school records and gravesites destroyed.

    During the summer of 2014, Justin Welby was named as a co-conspirator in #ChildTrafficking and killing by a #Brussels based #CitizensTribunal and found guilty of #CrimesAgainstHumanity. Part of the evidence presented to the Tribunal concerned Welby’s participation in a #CatholicAnglican child sacrificial #cult known as the #NinthCircle that operated extensively in the #Canadian ‘Indian #ResidentialSchools and implicates British, Dutch, and Belgian ‘royalty’.

    The complicity doesn’t end there. It involves the world’s second biggest #mining company and a close associate and funder of Donald #Trump: Rio Tinto, whose biggest investors include the British royal family. Justin Welby’s ties to #RioTinto Mining and to more murder cropped up in September of 2022, when Tinto and its Canadian subsidiary, #StarDiamondMining, dealt with some “troublesome Indians” on the James Smith #Cree reservation in eastern #Saskatchewan.

    After refusing to allow Rio Tinto to begin diamond mining on their land, ten members of the James Smith tribe were #murdered in one night. The alleged killer was a drug addict and drifter who conveniently died in #RCMP custody the next day. Six of the ten murdered people were relatives of Rio Tinto’s biggest opponent among the James Smith Cree natives, Chief Wally Burns.

  12. Was reading about the new #Archbishop of SE Asia #today and came across his province's statement on #SameSexMarriage in the #ChurchOfEngland, which reads (in part): "the blessing of same-sex unions has no biblical ground whatsoever, since Scripture teaches unambiguously that marriage is between one man and one woman."

    That last statement is just patently untrue. The #Bible is FULL of polygamists! Like, there isn't a SINGLE example of a "traditional #marriage" in there! Plenty ambiguity!

  13. McCarrick, the former #archbishop of #Washington, had been charged w/ assaulting a 16-year-old boy in 1974. He was the highest-ranking #Catholic official in the country to face criminal charges for alleged #SexAbuse.
McCarrick, 93, still faces a #criminal #SexualAbuse charge, against the same alleged victim, in #Wisconsin.
