[Anglican Curmudgeon] 4 Nov 2008--According to the legendary pre-Christian Chinese scholar of war Sun-Tzu,
If you know the enemy and know yourself,you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.If you know yourself but not your enemy,for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat.If you know neither the enemy nor yourself,you will succumb in every battle.
In deference to the philosophy thus expressed, what I propose to do in this and succeeding posts is to describe the current enemy of those who, like me, grew up in the Episcopal church in our youth and now can scarcely recognize what it is to which we in name, at any rate, "belong." (If you cannot accept the term "enemy" as descriptive, then you will learn nothing of use to you here. I suggest that you go to Mark Harris' website, because he does about as good a job as is possible to represent what TEC is doing today.)
