More Weird Anglican/ Catholic Satire
A compassionate yet morally uncompromising statement of the Church's position on that controversial lifestyle choice, left-handedness: "DEXTERA DOMINI: The Declaration on the Pastoral Care of Left-Handed Persons."
For while it is neither possible nor desirable at present to decide whether this disorder is genetic in origin or merely the result of repeated nasty thoughts, in either case one may never argue that left-handedness is compulsive and therefore excusable. It is, of course, necessary to take note of the distinction between the sinistral condition and the individual left-handed actions, which are intrinsically disordered and utterly wrong.
If the Southern Cone doesn't sign up to this immediately, I shall be very disappointed...
Also, on a less politically charged noter Rules for General Synod Cricket
