An Archbishop, a Queen and an Imam
from Anglican Samizdat:
Didn’t walk into a bar but they did find themselves together at Windsor Castle in this rather odd juxtaposition:
The Queen is flanked by Justin Welby who believes – although he is slippery about admitting it – in same sex-marriage and the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar who believes homosexuality is “completely strange to eastern men… who are naturally disgusted with such deviance”.
By rights Welby should regard the imam as a homophobe – except that would make Welby an Islamophobe. What a conundrum.
My sympathy is with the Queen who was stuck in the middle.
