A Second Epistle to Archbishop

Dear Archbishop of Canterbury, 

This is a direct letter, so please sit and read it. 

I am of the understanding that criticism of senior Anglicans is excused with 'Beware when all men speak well of you'. If only the rest of the Bible was as well known by those! 

I am just reading the latest article regarding your decision on the colour of Jesus and your threat to remove historical statues.

The responses are mainly cries of anguish at the lost Anglican Church, from believers and non-believers alike. 

The beautiful buildings and our history being vandalized on a whim are of great concern nationally. You must get permission before you interfere with statues, as they are not yours. 

The ethnicity 'Jewish' is present in most nations, from Chinese to African Countries to American, English, Spanish and Portuguese, the skin colour varies from dark to pale, and the English traditionally relate to a Jesus who is white as the original English race is. The extremes to which you want to change history and 'suck up' to certain identities and bodies is unnatural and is undermining the C of E. Your sucking up to the Jewish community has been bad, your use of them to interfere in the election was horrifying and so very open. Your abuse of power is unprecedented. You answer to no-one, definitely not God, and this can't continue. 

I was surprised by the Prince of Wales in his claim over faiths helping their neighbours during the recent lockdown, just another reminder that the Royals, with their own problems, more than condone yours? I didn't witness the Anglican Church helping anyone. Does advertising yourself as giving a sermon from your kitchen constitute helping anyone? Does using the NHS bandwagon to try to gain public affection constitute helping? The NHS is not part of or connected to the Anglican Church although they are reputed to conflict the NHS to help themselves.

 I was astounded at your very public press release about 'secretly 'helping' on Coronavirus wards, when you made a previous press show of having pneumonia, do you forget in between press releases, what claims you have made? Both you and the NHS have been very foolhardy and lacking in sense if you have been using coronavirus patients for your self-gain when you should have been shielding. An elderly man such as yourself who has had pneumonia should have been at home throughout the shielding period, not doing a grotesque victory dance on helpless patients. Sadly your behaviour has become routine, and we know what to expect of you if there is a current issue that you might be able to use for personal gain. I think if someone had time they could predict your loud voice butting in before each statement you make, and possibly also the content. Do you really feel that no one sees through your stunts? You are leaving the Christians and thinkers of the UK disgusted and those remaining in your church are at a loss. 

You appear to have spent 7 years trying to gain the title of 'The People's Archbishop' but you have failed because you aren't, you are 'The Archbishop's Archbishop', rich, privately educated, wannabe politician and overstaying your welcome, and each use of vulnerable people, who are an easy target in your view, because you feel that they won't answer back, come out as purely you using these groups to draw attention to yourself. There is no Church and no Christianity in the equation. Your PR company and in-house experts have failed you in return for their large stipend, people can see through you, and you are becoming more and more ridiculous. 

Your gatekeepers who answer the many letters and calls or don't, are in difficulties. Someone who phoned Lambeth Palace recounted their experience. Your gatekeeper couldn't even understand why there was an issue with you supporting BLM instead of carrying out your original duties as a minister of religion.

You received the highest standard of education, presumably, at the best private institutions, although you thanked your family by breaking the 10 commandments and dragging all of them, from your parents to your daughter, through the mud publicly for your own gain. I am sure that you can discern what I and many many others are saying about how terrible your behaviour is, how your use of the press is unbecoming and how your duty as a minister of religion has been cast aside in your efforts to either be a politician or a celebrity. 

As I said in the debate about the matter today, Jewish people are every colour and in every nation and race, my own Jewish origins leave me as a white/slightly olive skinned chap, and I am not dyeing my skin to suit your needs. The colour of Jesus to each nation is part of our belief and heritage, and as Jewish people are of every colour, that is not inappropriate. As a man of Jewish origin myself, you appear to be being antisemitic, racist even, but you yourself are allegedly of Jewish origin, and white. Do we need to paint our faces in order to meet and discover your obscure teaching and its meaning? History shows light-skinned Jews in the Middle East, you cannot change that. 

Let me pose this question. The Father of Jesus was God. What colour was His skin? Are you to pronounce also how we should see The Father according to race? 

Your behaviors beggar belief. Your various step-fathers should have given your behind a good paddling and taught you respect both for God and humanity before it was too late. And I am sure you can use those words to spark a riot about physical punishment. I don't normally advocate it. 

A family member just chipped in and asked if you would like to take up a position as Missionary to the tribes in Africa, once there, you can create 'Gods' in the colour required and explain to the tribes why the God is their colour, not yours, etc, it may well make more sense. I think you would receive the support of thousands of UK people if you mentioned in your daily press round robin about your bowel movements and bogies that you were considering it. You have plenty of tents and groundsheets to take, you tend to wear them while telling the UK this and that about yourself and your desires, wants, needs and fantasies. And I think you should willingly accept your new position in the jungle rather than being banished there when your misconducts come to light, when one man speaks and the UK finally sees what the C of E have been getting away with as they conflict every government and charitable agency to cover up the extent of criminal activity by C of E heads. 

For example, you drove a vulnerable woman to death with public hatred and slander, incredibly using safeguarding as an excuse, and forcibly silenced her, causing the collapse of the one man defending her against your murderous onslaught,and your sorrow was very false as you personally intervened to clear the wrongdoers during a botched investigation that excluded the victim and publicly destroyed her. The matter, which includes criminal actions by your safeguarding gatekeepers,  is available and waiting for a just court of law that isn't corrupted by your minions. You knowingly allowed Lords and Ladies conflicted and in contempt, to harm abuse victims when you chose those Lords and Ladies and kept them on as investigators when it was obvious that their aim was to cover up for you for a large fee and give your PR acclaim of the back of the suffering of victims, and throughout, you have boasted about safeguarding. The most profound aspect of this was the lack of action by authorities, including the IICSA, to stop it. 

Safeguarding who? The Church of England. You have wept and wailed and been 'ashamed' and 'sorrowful' for the cameras, you have never ceased to amaze with your endless false care, apology, shame, stunts for the cameras, for the press, but you are not sorry, you are not ashamed, you are proud of your crazy irresponsible, false and frankly bizarre behavior. Every group that you and your elderly church openly despise, shun, and treat as a safeguarding liability has been used by you for publicity stunts. And why? Because you don't wish to return to being regulated, because you want to mislead the already confounded IICSA, because you want to pretend to include and nurture the groups who are unwelcome in your elderly middle class congregations. 

There is no longer an atom of Christianity or Biblical base in your representation of the C of E. You broke the 10 commandments by slurring your family liberally all over the front pages of the news. You have attacked a number of companies, Wonga for example, repeatedly, when you had shares in them; is it possible for you to understand that your behavior is abnormal and that your priorities need to be your Church, your personal misconduct, and the well-being of those who you are and have harmed? Your soppy overdone pretences of inclusion and care have gone way beyond bizarre and unacceptable, they are at a point where there is concern being expressed for your health and well-being, because clinical depression is not usually presented this way, clinical depression is defined by low mood and lack of motivation, not daily bizarre use of the media for attention seeking in the realms of fantasy while you are aware that human lives that you have harmed are waiting for justice. Any layman, not a senior figure, would be referred to medical help if they behaved as you are doing. 

I know the Anglican Church well, I remember what it was when the pews were full and I see it as it is has become, mainly naive older people, being force fed messages that take them away from Jesus, being used for press stunts like the Lent promise to be more environmentally aware, nothing to do with God, environmental awareness is personal and not in the domain of the C of E who are using it for show. You forcing your false sorrow on the whole nation of congregations over abuse when the IICSA made you uncomfortable was an example of how the church can be abused, you seemed to forget that you were both part of, and as Primate, responsible for, what you did the sorrow act about and yet the lies were forced on everyone, and of course the press, to feed your bottomless and constantly crying ego.

My understanding of safeguarding in the your corporation is this: Each Bishop is a gatekeeper, and they ignore and silence victims, they abuse the conflictions with social services, police and others, and the victim is silenced until the Bishop leaves and is no longer liable, then the new Bishop uses the case as a press relations stunt to gain his popularity as new Bishop, for example the new Archbishop of York has just demonstrated this with a domestic abuse complaint while Sentamu with his unresolved wrongdoing has rolled merrily off into retirement, and you will do the same. A person discussing your recent bizarre statements said that they hoped that God would send a bolt of lightning soon. I would prefer God to be more methodical and hold you to trial in human terms, and ensure that the world knows that no Royal Family, no Government, no conflicting of authorities, and no cover-ups are proof against True Justice. When you have been brought to justice, according to your recent statement 'Then there can be forgiveness'. 

A lone voice, for example that of the victim who you publicly ruined, is easy to silence. My letter will be met by the gatekeepers at Lambeth, and you will presumably continue to break the church down and meet your needs, and the thousands of other letters and phone calls on this theme will also be rebuffed by gatekeepers while you and your fellows who you know are as guilty as you, will continue as you are doing because no one, from Royalty to the Courts, will stop you. But I think you know that people know, and as you are in opposition to the majority of the general public, even with your hubris, you will eventually have to go. 

Neither the Bishop of London nor of Dover will be welcome to replace you, as they are of the same ilk, they think that their job is about publicity, not God. Gender and race are immaterial, behavior is the key here. Let the people of England choose a leader, otherwise the C of E in the UK is going to go on dying, and it is time to use the assets and investments which are being wickedly held onto by the C of E as the Church and the Country collapse. Sell all you own and give it to the poor, you are getting rich on being a charlatan. 

The Christians of the UK would welcome some hope, so I will leave it with you, what can be done to save the Church of England and represent Christianity to the nation once you have prudently removed yourself? Please turn to Jesus, Justin Welby, or declare atheism in your next round robin to the press, before you damage yourself, the Faith, the Church and the Country any more. 

Kind regards, 

John Carter
