Villainous Peter Jensen


The Most Reverend Peter Jensen was the Anglican Archbishop of Sydney, Australia. His restrictive, ultra-conservative brand of evangelical Christianity was what drove him to make reference to himself as a villain and an idiot, in terms of popular culture. He opposed the ordination of female priests, the consecration of female bishops, stem cell research, and absolutely anything whatsoever to do with the equal rights of the law-abiding, tax-paying, gay and lesbian citizens of Australia.

Anglican Primate Peter Jensen


The then Anglican Primate of Sydney, Archbishop Peter Jensen, often voiced his opposition to the ordination of women priests and the consecration of women bishops. And what he had to say about gays and lesbians probably doesn't bear mentioning in a polite blog such as this. I wonder what Jesus would make of him?

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!
