Ok I shall stand back and see the explosion of posts that may now follow...

:tc: :cannon:
No explosion from me. If I had the authority I would limit the number of roles any one person carries out in a parish, and not just the liturgical roles. By carrying out multiple roles, those who dominate exclude the others, whom they then accuse of being unwilling to do their share.

Bishops should retire at the age of 65. On objection is that it takes decades of experience to become a bishop, so they tend to be in their fifties when they reach episcopal rank. Funny how a young officer can progress to the most senior positions in any the armed forces young enough to put some service in before retiring at 55, but bishops soldier, or in some cases, dodder on until they can count their life expectancy on the fingers of one hand. Make them retire, send them out to do parish or chaplaincy work.

I dare not suggest bishops retire fully and become Extraordinary Ministers, they would need to be laicised first.


Ok Rose now stands back to await the explosion of posts that may now follow...
