What about Lambeth Palace, where the Archbishop of Canterbury lives, with a full staff of servants?
Quite a large carbon footprint, I'd say. Maybe he'd better tear it down and live in a tent.

The Archbishop of Canterbury called for an end to economic growth to save the planet. Dr Rowan Williams said that economic growth based on consumer power had led to towards 'the death of what is most distinctively human'.

Obama is one step ahead of you.
Is he out of his mind?
Death of what is most distinctly human, huh? Fine. Let’s exterminate billions of people so we can go back to the pure human race as it existed before “consumerism”. Can’t see any flaw in that argument.
What an “f”ing fool! If all of the farmers in the world only produced enough to feed their own families (zero growth), billion of people would starve to death.

This guy is an embarrassment to Anglicans everywhere.
Rowan’s been crazy for a long time, this statement is no surprise. His church is full of homosexuals and eco-nuts.
His mind is so open his brains fell out.
Bring on ignorance, death, pestilence, hunger and war. Great Plan.
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! I think this idiot should go back to saving souls and leave economics to economists!
This dufus is no Sir Thomas Moore
He is only calling for mass starvation and mass poverty
He's right, assuming dysentery is what is "most distinctively human."
He's certainly not calling for an end to the tithes to his church.
assuming dysentery is what is “most distinctively human.”
well, my former cat, now deceased of old age, had that “most distinctively human” characteristic once, at 3 a.m., on the bed, less than 3 feet from my breathing mechanism..let me tell you, it woke me up faster than a bad dream about my ex-wife..

Let’s all kill ourselves to save the planet. Archbishop, you go first. All the sane Anglicans are looking to the African bishops for leadership, anyway.

Dr. Williams (aka, the Fool) is going to be the death of Christianity in Britain.
Nah. The conservative Anglicans will go back to the Catholic church, the liberals will become Wiccans. I suspect that Queen Elizabeth harbors Catholic sentiments.
“Obama is one step ahead of you. “
Spot On!
right, well then... i guess they can stop their Sunday donations that fuels all of his hot air then can't they???
Tell the Bish to let us know when his church vaults have been emptied, his church properties sold, and his comfortable perks & income have been reduced to zero, ok?. THEN he can preach about the virtues of poverty.
*global = gore-bull
This demented fool is one of the more visible, but his buddies pimping poverty on the world are legion. Just consider for starters, the poisonous ideology that goes by the Orwellian name of "social justice," The most evil joke played on the poor since "welfare."
The Arch-druid has spoken and nobody listened.
I am pretty sure if we were in the days of Noah. The Rev Willams would not be picked by God to be Noah. He would be left to drown with the rest of the nimbicles!
Hey Henry VIII...thanks for the heresy.
Let’s net drag Guinness into this, most English don’t drink Guinness anyway, Besides this guy is probably drinking some old Billy Beer, or Obamacide.
The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, is such a crazy radical, he could work as an Obama czar!
Total dementia has set in.
I wish he was as concerned about preaching the Gospel and obeying all that Christ commanded us, as he is trying to “save the planet.” The Archbishop has never contributed anything to the economy, but he doesn’t mind living off those that do. Maybe he should sell all the cathedrals and chapels in the UK and give the money to the poor? He hardly appears as someone that has ever experienced poverty.
So what exactly does he mean by economic growth?

It's the same old far leftist crap, you'll have to follow the link to immerse yourself in his foolishness.
Traditional Anglican ping, continued in memory of its founder Arlin Adams. Too much book learning and no common sense.
You first, Rowan.
AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHH
......The Archbishop of Canterbury called for an end to economic growth to save the planet......
Balderdash!!!!
When clerics embrace a watered-down version of the Christian faith, loaded with heresies and prostrating before modernism and islam, they have nothing to offer but politics. And even their politics is nonsense and delusion!!!!
Anyone under the jurisdiction of this pseudo-bishop and those like him is well-advised to run far, far away. Run all the way home—to Holy Orthodoxy!!!!
That last brings back a memory.
It was 1972 and my fraternity house always hosted a bunch of kids from a local orphanage for a Christmas party. That year, unfortunately, the brother playing Santa Claus happened upon a bottle of Beaujolais while getting changed. He polished it off, struggled into his outfit, and staggered down the stairs. Upon seeing the kids he called out “Ho F**king ho, kids!”, missed the bottom step and fell flat on his face. That was the last time the orphanage showed up at the house.
From then on he had a new nickname. Uninformed persons always thought that we called him “Ho” because his name was “Jose” ....
You know, today's lefties sound more and more like 1930's-era right wing Southern agrarians all the time.
That story is too funny; tell me it’s true...
Oh, it is absolutely true. Massachusetts Eta chapter of Phi Kappa Theta, Christmas of 1971, actually, now that I think about it.
