#1 Like I said any thing made by a company onwend by an Anglican is off the list of stuff I am going to purchase. I also extends to not using or renting facilities owned by the Anglican church here in the US. That is going to cost them about 400 X 2 bucks right off the bat this year.

#2 The Christian population of the Palestinian Territories has declined from 18% at the time of the British mandate and the creation of Israel to less than 2% today. In contrast the christian population of Israel has grown substantially over that period. While the Christian population of Israel includes immigrants from places like Russia. It is clear that not only has the Palestinian Christian population in Israel grown, it will soon be the only palestinian christian population left in the middle east.

Israel is in fact the protector of palestinian christians and the Anglican church has a serious case of reality inversion.

#3 I think it's less anti-Semitism, as in hatred for Jews, and more cowardice, shameless kow-towing to the alter of Progressive 3rd-Worldist pieties and a pitiful attempt to win temporary reprieve from the hostilities of the expanding Islam. These tired and toothless old men with no congregation to speak of are empty figure-heads and easily dominated by the aggressive Muslims and their old intellectual commrades increasingly dogmatic Left.

#4 Remember that both the British Anglican and American Episcopalians are minorities within Anglicanism, now officially seen as doctrinally flawed members of the communion, and no longer sanctioned for many activities. That is, they are seen as borderline schismatics.

In the US, again, the conservative Anglicans have or are becoming African missionary churches, so they are no longer under the sway of liberal American bishops.

#5 Anyone ever heard of the Church of England disenvesting from slave-taker and genocider Soudan? Or from Indonesia during the East-Timor genocide? Or from Saddam's Irak when he gassed Kurds? Or from China for its atrocities in Tibet?

Just what I thought. They only care when there are Jews around.

#6 Just another bit of casual anti-Semitism

Nope. A number of the people who saved Jews dyuring WWII were antisemitic: they didn't like Jews but they opposed their killing. What we have here is alter-nazism: supporting people who try yo exterminate the Jews.

#7 Don't forget Prince Charles is titular head of the Church....must really have something on him to get them to apologize for slave trafficking. Also, they are reopening Princess Di's case, so maybe they will change their tune and divest from the Palestinians. A church split is really not a loss, though.
