The Anglican Church continues to self-destruct by trying to "keep up."  The latest installment in the saga is the Archbishop of Canterbury's call for a "constructive accomodation with some aspects of Muslim law."  Roger's Rules has the full story:

"The proper answer to such gambits was formulated in the 19th century by General Charles Napier when dealing with sutte, the Indian custom of burning a widow on her husband’s funeral pyre: 'You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours.'"

Thanks, Carol.
