The Global South has been getting a fair amount of press throughout the current Anglican Troubles. And what with ++Akinola, ++Venebles and a host of others whom I can't remember (Uganda, Zimbabwe, Indonesia ...) spouting off, we sometimes forget that The Global South isn't quite the monolithic theological bloc it might appear to be.
Case in point, South Africa. Archbishop "N" (because I can't remember how to spell his name [I think it's Ndugane] let alone pronounce it). He seems to have more important things to consider than the sexual orientation of people.
And so does his predecessor, Archbishop Desmund Tutu. He had this to say about the current issues within the Anglican Communion. It's too bad most of our other primates and bishops are so focused on the wrong issue.

A Few Words About Comments
Comments are always welcome here, but there are a few things you should know:
1) If you comment, leave a name. If you can't figure out how to log in or register or whatever the system is making you do (which, believe me, I fully understand how frustrating that can be) and you must comment anonymously . . . leave a name in the comment section. Purely anonymous comments will be deleted.
2) Comments I deem to be offensive, irrelevant, or generally trollish will be deleted. I'm mainly talking to the Akurians here. Don't make me get out my flag!
3) If you would like to receive e-mail notification of other comments so you can more easily follow a conversation (yeah, like I ever have those on this blog), you must register with Blogger. Sorry . . . I didn't have anything to do with that one.
Enjoy the game.
