[edit] Haec dies

Thanks for fixing the Latin in the Haec dies on my talk page! I can't believe I had that mistake for so long ... :) Appreciate your work on Anglican church music, the mass, and composers, by the way. Cheers, Antandrus (talk) 01:42, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bishop Nazir-Ali

Re: His Lordship's "identifying as Christian" at age 15, so say the various biographical items on the Anglican Communion and the Diocese of Rochester websites, together with background information in various books and articles he has written. His mother, I believe, remained Muslim. In any case, it is not at all contentious; the issue arose when he was shortlisted for Archbishop of Canterbury and various naysayers in the Church of England were trying to make a thing of his having at one stage dallied with Roman Catholicism before he settled on the Church of Pakistan as his denomination of choice. Yes of course Pakistanis are very denominational: it IS, after all, strictly speaking a capital offence for a Muslim to apostise. But things would have been somewhat more easygoing as to Sharia in the 1950s and Nazir-Ali senior would have chosen to become Christian before 1947.Masalai 09:34, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

I don't think there is any sense that he 'dallied' with Roman Catholicism. He was brought up in that denomination (which accounts for the majority of Pakistani Christians) and switched to the Church of Pakistan later. Fiddleback 21:48, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
