Prior to that she&#8217;d been the personal choice of John Bercow, or Berkowitz if you want to get fussy, as Chaplain to the House Of Commons. Apparently he had a significant input to her subsequent promotion to the Bishop of Dover gig as well despite the tradition of awarding it to the Rector of Westminster. But he&#8217;s male, pale and stale. And Bercow wasn&#8217;t having that. Which raises the question as to why a Jew should play such a role in supposedly Christian institutions. And something else is remarkable. How do\u00a0universally loathed people like Bercow\u00a0get elected to high office time and again?<\/h5>\n<h5>According to an ex-colleague Hudson-Wilkin is &#8216;arrogant, opinionated, would tread on anyone to get her way and has a major chip on her shoulder&#8217;. Another ex-colleague claimed that the new Bishop &#8216;knows nothing whatsoever about theology and her administrative skills are non-existent&#8217;\u00a0even though her new role &#8216;requires a great deal of senior management ability&#8217;. So why then would such a person even be considered for such a role? Well we all know. Because she&#8217;s a woman and black. And boy, does she know how to play the race card. Journalist\u00a0Ysenda Graham writes that &#8216;she specialises in haranguing her audiences for not being divers enough&#8217;. She complains of St. Paul&#8217;s Cathedral that &#8216;while the congregation is diverse the clergy is completely different&#8217;. She berated Specsavers and Marks &amp; Spencers for not having enough &#8216;models of colour&#8217; in their ads. Her sermon to the Rotary Club consisted of endless whingeing at their lack of diversity.<\/h5>\n<div id=\"attachment_60841\" style=\"width: 235px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Justin-Welby.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-60841\" class=\"size-full wp-image-60841\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Justin-Welby.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Justin-Welby.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/Justin-Welby-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-60841\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Justin Welby<\/p><\/div>\n<h5>The astonishing thing about people like her is their sense of entitlement. It might appear school-boyish to point out that had Whites not colonised Africa they&#8217;d now be subsisting on grubs in a mud hut somewhere in the Dark Continent.\u00a0 They should be on their knees in gratitude at being afforded the benefits of an advanced and rich society. Anyway it remains to be seen how the sensible down-to-earth parishioners of East Kent will take to her. The appointment was made by the very cool and woke Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby. Justin is so concerned with diversity, inclusion, feminism, climate change and other trendy fads that it seems like he&#8217;d be happy to see the end of this God business altogether.<\/h5>\n<h5>He seems to think that his approach will arrest the precipitous decline of his Church. It won&#8217;t. It will accelerate it until it degenerates into one of those Californian New Age spiritual movement that flared briefly before disappearing into the dust bin of history. The religions that thrive today, like Islam, are red in tooth and claw, giving short shrift to the latest transient fashions. And if, as Welby seems to believe, that Hudson-Wilkin will enrich the CoE with her &#8216;African sense of the spirit&#8217; then he&#8217;s in for a rude awakening. Africans don&#8217;t do the Christian God of humility, poverty and turn-the-other-cheek. Instead they see God as the all-powerful Daddy In The Sky who&#8217;s there to help them achieve the worldy objectives. Like winning the lottery or afflicting a love-rival with ebola.<\/h5>\n<h5>Another venerable Western institution bites the dust.<\/h5>\n<h5><\/h5>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/irishsavant.blogspot.com\/2019\/08\/east-kent-about-to-learn-da-lawds-prayer.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Irish Savant reflects as another venerable Western institution bites the dust.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":150,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[61,58],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-192576","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-Commentary","category-Current_Affairs"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/192576","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/150"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=192576"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/192576\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":192582,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/192576\/revisions\/192582"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=192576"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=192576"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=192576"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
