So, the whole Sharia law rumpus is one I'm so totally bored to death with already. Not at all because I don't think the issues which the ABofC Rowan Williams raised are important, quite the opposite, but simply because the overwhelming majority of reactions to what he said are so ill considered, illogical, irrelevant, uneducated, hasty and have next to no correspondence to what he actually said. Hopefully, in time, his comments and general theological leanings will lead to a more widespread *rational* debate. In the meantime, I think his comments have been very useful, not so much in regard to the subject matter, but in revealing the true colours of the stultifying, corrupting and deadening language the media use to "report" such matters.
