From here:

The head of the Anglican Communion worldwide has expressed concern over the increase in violence against Christian minorities in the country.

On his visit to Kolkatta on Saturday, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, said he would speak with leaders of other religious communities urging them to shun violence and promote peace.

“I am as concerned about the attacks on Christians as I would have been about attacks on people of other communities,” the archbishop said while interacting to mediapersons.

I am concerned about the neighbour’s rabbits eating my lettuce; when it comes to killing people because they are Christians a spot of condemnation is in order. Rowan Williams reserves his condemnation for more overtly dangerous atrocities, though: overly enthusiastic evangelical Christians who try and convert people from other faiths.

The last quoted sentence above implies that Rowan – based on past performance, presumably – didn’t believe his listeners would expect him to stand up for Christians at all but, using the element of surprise to throw them off guard, he did manage to muster some concern. Perhaps his plan was to use a combination of English understatement and Hegelian dialectic to startle the perpetrators into repentance.

Why would anyone take this bumbling twerp seriously?
