Relevant to the old TAC story
I have just been given the heads-up about Archbishop Hepworth’s old nemesis, Archbishop Philip Wilson of Adelaide. He has been charged with alleged cover-up of abuse by another priest, Jim Fletcher, in the 1970s, and may face up to two … Continue reading
TAC tittle-tattle
I occasionally call in at St Mary’s Hollywood: The Cold Case File and found a series on the Anglican Church in America led by Bishop Brian Marsh. Mr Bruce’s latest mentions me in Who Is Brian Marsh? — III. Indeed … Continue reading

Old English Catholic Blog

Ordinariate News
There is quite a lot of news on Foolishness to the world and Fr Smuts’ blog about the Ordinariates and the new Deanery in Canada. I have met Fr Wilkinson and corresponded with him a few times, and congratulate him … Continue reading

A New Blog
I have recently come across a new blog under the title of St Mary’s Hollywood: The Cold Case File, run by John Bruce, an erstwhile parishioner at St Mary of the Angels Church in Hollywood during the events of 2011 and … Continue reading

The TAC Bishops and Outside Scrutiny
The Roman Catholic lawyer Mourad has just sent another comment to Fr Smuts blog in response to Fr Robert, the “Irish Anglican”. I have esteemed this lawyer’s input for some time. It deserves our attention. It shows a distinction that … Continue reading
