    "No plans to reunite" says Rowan Williams. What about what God might have planned? "May they all be as one". I guess God will just have to wait because Rowan Williams said so.

    Maybe not the best 'man bites dog' metaphor. GM and Chrysler are so far down that they just might accept a buyout that CWN could afford!

    Tomorrow, Saturday March 10th, Bishop Robert Lynch of St. Petersburg has granted the Episcopalians the use of St. Jude Cathedral for their ordination ceremony for a new auxiliary Bishop!

    But what about the rumor that Mr. Lawler has no plans to take over Honda Motors and Ben and Jerry's? If the rumor is not true, I am definitely looking forward to a Civic with an ice cream dispenser.

    I really do not understand why The Vatican would keep a dialogue going with the Anglicans. After all, the Holy Father has given them plenty of chances to rectify the "Huge" mistake of King Henry VIII. I personally would be very embarrassed to acknowledge that the Founder of my Church was King Henry the VIII. After Canterbury Archbishop's announcement, I really think The Pope should dust off his sandals and move on. There is nothing left that they had "in common" with the Catholics 500yrs ago.

    Hmph. Those Catholics. Ever since the Pope and his followers left the Anglican church . . . (/"1066 And All That")

    In other news Phil Lawler, the editor of CWNews, revealed that the CWN is not planning to take control of General Motors. See, I knew that you could find something to be glad about!
