Here is a proposed addendum to the Book of Revelation, chapter 3:

"And to the Primate of the Church based at 815 Second Avenue, New York City, write:

"I sent you to Lambeth in 1998 to confer with your godly peers, to seek consensus on matters of grave concern to the entire Anglican Communion, and to exhibit to the world that all so sent may truly be one.

"But I see by your works that you are neither cold nor hot, choking on yea or nay, taking refuge in abstention, so pitiably lukewarm as to merit being summarily spewed out.

"Nevertheless, reproof and discipline by the One who continues to offer love, standing at the door knocking, is always in order, followed by repentance and amendment of life. Whoever has an ear would do well to listen to what the Spirit has said to the churches."
