With friends like these

Thomas doesn't need enemies. I haven't listened to the chap - dial-up connection - but hooted involuntarily when I read his little bio thingy. Anglicans - making Catholics feel better since 1972.

"Martin Palmer is a Theologian and Director of the International Consultancy on Religion, Education and Culture. Martin is an Anglican lay preacher, an ordained Taoist priest, a Sikh elder, and holds several other honorary religious positions. He is the author of many books on religious topics including The Sacred History of Britain and has edited the Times World Religions. He is also one of the foremost translators of ancient Chinese texts, having published translations on the Tao Te Ching, I Ching, Chuang Tzu, and Kuan Yin. "

By the way, go and vote Thomas (see link below or on the page the title of this post links to) and get all your friends to do likewise.
