The BBC reports that Dr Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury, is seriously considering appearing in an episode of the Simpsons. Apparently he is reported to be a great fan.
What might be the reaction of believers if an Orthodox bishop were to appear on the Simpsons? My mind boggles!
That show is awesome. It is right on the money as far as a lot of criticism of our current society. Of course I would not want to have my bishop actually appear on the show!

Please note that I do not subscribe to "Old Calendar Ecumenism" and believe that only the Synod of Archbishop Kallinikos is the canonical GOC of Greece. I do believe, however, that we can break down barriers and misunderstandings through prayer and discussion on forums such as this one.

At times their irreverent attitude toward religion ticks me off, but much of their social commentary is very fitting.
