2003-FEB-27: Rowan Williams becomes Archbishop of Canterbury: Rowan Williams was became 104th archbishop of Canterbury in 2002-DEC when his election to the post was confirmed in a ceremony at St. Paul's Cathedral. He became the spiritual head of the worldwide Anglican Communion, including the Episcopal Church in the U.S. and the Anglican Church in Canada. He was enthroned on FEB-27 at Canterbury Cathedral. His appointment has received strong opposition because:
Outside the cathedral, Rev. Tim Chapman was one of seven clergy who protested the enthronement. Referring to Williams' liberal views, he said: "The appointment of Rowan Williams marks a sad day because it means that the Church of England now has as its most visible person someone who holds wrong views about the Bible." 10 |
