Do As I Say, Not As I Do


Archbishop Peter Jensen was the Anglican Archbishop of Sydney in Australia. His theology is of a particularly virulent, fundamentalist strain and he has spoken out with some considerable venom and spite against such issues as the consecration of female bishops and gay rights. It would appear to be a case of "do as I say, not as I do" for Archbishop Jenson, however, because not long after his consecration in 2001, he "was accused of nepotism after appointing both his wife (Christine) and his brother (Phillip Jensen) to official positions in the Sydney diocese" (Wikipedia). So much for Archbishop Jensen's exemplary moral virtue!
