Something about what the papers won't shut up about.

What an embarrassment. The secular world (at least the UK) can't find anything better to talk about than religion. How fun. And at the forefront is the leader of the Anglican communion on the front page of most newspapers for 3 or 4 days in a row. I think the way it comes across is that the last thing society expected an Archbishop to do was comment on it.

Rowan Williams in a clumsy little way has taken Britain by surprise a few times already. That doesn't make it ok. I wonder how many chances a man in this kind of stature should get before he's recommended early retirement. I personally would prefer to keep the post and show that it was no mistake to give him this kind of responsibility.
