Questioning the validity of the electoral college that forms the Church of England general synod

Article on the front page of today's Guardian questioning the validity of the electoral college that forms the Church of England general synod.

Logically if this vote was invalid because of the flawed nature of the General Synod, then every decision taken by the General Synod under this system must have been invalid including the original decision to consecrate women priests.

They can't have it both ways.

NB - this is not being anti-women priests this is being anti-cant, anti-hypocrisy, anti-gerrymandering.

Half-page article by Zoe Williams in today's Guardian with lots of helpful advice about what Anglican feminists should do following the decision on women bishops.  The only problem with this advice is that Zoe Williams is an atheist (has self-identified as such in an interview on television).  So she is not exactly the best person to offer impartial sympathetic counselling.

Of course, she could be posing as a "friend" of feminist Anglicans, keen to help them maintain their Anglican integrity, and some Anglicans might be attracted by her arguments - but as Edith Wharton said:  I am sure the rabbit finds the anaconda fascinating.
