Attack of the Theocrats!
I really enjoyed that. I am particularly fascinated by the Clergy Project, or more to the point, the findings of the research that is going hand in hand with it. The quip about tens of thousands of clergymen signing up if re-training were a given speaks volumes. What is also pleasing is that such help and guidance is being commissioned and delivered from secular quarters. If it is the case that doubt and loss of faith by the clergy is as rife, as testimony from those in the church would attest, I would hope that we have the guts to help. Certainly, I don't see them getting the help they need from the church they are part of.
Spare a penny for an old ex-vicar...
