Liverpudlians

Funny that. At one end of the Old Church of England there is Rev Calvin giving talks at the Pro-Life Marches of America and wowing his audiences, going from strength to strength with a simple unadulterated message from the heart of the gospel of Mary and her son Jesus, just think of the pressures she would have faced if the Israeli messiah had been conceived and gestated today surrounded with pro-choice gynaecologists, and then on the other hand there is the hapless red wall bishop not a million miles away from Liverpool a red wall diocese who is on the ropes about some historical complaints of the usual kind from the MeToo kind of girls keen on pursuing and making an example of someone they are hunting in their minds, another Weinstein or Epstein or whichever - the local instantiation is unimportant - he has all the wrong indices - male and married and asian for those girls maybe - just saying just to play devil's advocate here in the northern dioceses bordering Scotland. He has released some statements to the press in which he had complied with the usual investigations of the moderne kind in the new era after Weinstein. But are we all missing the point in the Old Church of England, is the Old Church of England wide wide open to such censorship raids from the women and the girls, or might we need something more robust to cancel so much brain freeze and brain fog that is being germinated just to censor enlightened thinkers on the usual old style sensitive subjects - is this the new burn the books censorship of the forerunners to some more Nazis in a slowly emerging 1930s Germany? Is it Britain now in the 1930s? Just asking the questions here. Anyway, Liverpudlians have a wry sense of humour and know what the poor bishop - Asian altogether coincidentally of course no pun intended - has to put up with from some of the usual old style racist customers raiding the episcopate in the red wall dioceses - it is all another Epstein flourish apparently. Not just a batch of the usual white feminazi censors, as dear old Rev Calvin might say in the modern era. But still in the Real Church of England it is otherwise, we do have robust complaints systems and strict terms of reference for certain sins that of their very public nature constitute true crimes of a social kind. These have to go through procedures and it is not always a case of going through the canons of some political correctness type sins of a private nature which formerly and in other times were regarded as recreational past times. Sins must be crimes when they are public and social ones. There must be real and lasting harm caused by such as these. Not just discomfort of a mutual consensual kind. 1717.
