Our Confidence is in God: A brotherly rejoinder to David Edwards' open letter on Western Values

[VirtueOnline] December 11, 2005--I had the good opportunity to meet and entertain you during your Hong Kong and China visit a few years ago. It was your first visit -or the first in many years-to North Asia. I trusted the visit refreshed you and expanded your horizons.

This is why I am puzzled and perplexed by your somewhat buoyant defense of 'western values' in your open letter to the archbishops of the Global South. I was not sure whether you are trying to defend the values of 'Christian England' (of which you had written extensively), of Europe today, the rationale of North American churches, or that of the Communion
