Win-Win

Fr. Longenecker commenting on a report in the Telegraph of HRH Elizabeth II's deep unhappiness of late with the Church of England as well her increasing admiration of the Holy Catholic Church and Pope Benedict XVI:

Let's face it, the Church of England is never going to roll over and submit to the Holy Father, but it would be rather nice if a conservative group were to split off, join the Catholics and have Her Majesty come long for the ride. She could repudiate her role as the head of the Church of England, and the Anglicans could elect Elton John to take her place. That way they could have everything they really want: homosexual marriage and an old English queen as the head of their religion.
