Gough cough
For reasons which are beyond me, a Christian college in Sydney recently invited a former Australian Prime Minister to sound off about Sydney Anglicans, which he proceeded to do with gusto. It got into the local rag, so I wrote this unpublished rejoinder...
Dear editor,
Apparently one of Gough Whitlam's chief complaints about Sydney Anglicans and their leadership is that they are too aggressive, and make public pronouncements about matters that are really none of their business. To his accusation that the church is full of hypocrites, I would respond that there is plenty of room for more, and Gough will find a warm welcome should he decide to attend our church next Sunday.
