Jonathan Clatworthy’s article seems to be intentionally provocative and completely ignores Paul’s epistle to the Romans.

The only part I have sympathy with is his denunciation of ‘mild, obedient’.

she must deal with the deep-seated tensions between conservative evangelists and Anglo-Catholics, on one side, and progressive liberals and the evangelical tendency on the other.

Does The Observer not have a religious matters editor?

Glad to see Jonathan Clatworthy thinks he’s discovered it all again, like a 1960s Bible scholar who believes the ancient apostolic tradition of the Church has no merit and he knows much better in 2025. Thanks, but no thanks.
