Whatever you intended when you first posted, it seems to me now like you're looking for an argument. No matter how many times I re-read my post I can't see how you can take it to mean that I was allowing, or disallowing, you anything.

Sorry, but that is such a poor parody of what the Bishop said that there's no way I'm going to validate it by using it as a platform to discuss the issue.

Incidentally, I'm still interested to hear if you think the Bishop is out of touch. I suspect you don't.
Suspect all you like, I'm keeping my own counsel on that point for the time being.
