The BBC's Robert Piggott reports from the GAFCON Conference

Listen to it all (it starts a little past 45 seconds in). Mr. Piggott is the Religious Affairs correspondent of the BBC and he is interviewed on the BBC’s very fine “Sunday” programme.. Note carefully the quote from Archbishop Peter Jensen of Sydney at the conclusion of the segment.

  1. The_Elves says:

    I strongly disagree with Robert Piggott’s assertion at the start that since 2003 the traditionalists have been trying to “drive out” those who supported VGR’s consecration. More accurately, they have called for repentance, and if not repentance, discipline.

    Note: the entire running length of the report is just under 6 minutes.

  3. Kendall Harmon says:

    #1, you are quite right to point this out, it was my biggest disappointment with the piece.

  4. TLDillon says:

    What does one expect coming from England these days! I am not surprised!

  5. badman says:

    My understanding was that the discipline called for was the exclusion of TEC from the councils of the Anglican Communion. Was this not “driving out”?
