They're doing my job for me: putting the children off God.

Yeah, I know the column-inch-to-member ratio is already way off and I probably shouldn't be inflating it further, but: in solidarity with any readers following the Episcopal Church's General Convention these next two weeks, here's my very favorite phone moment from the ZooTV era: MacPhisto calls the Archbishop of Canterbury.

Background for anyone not familiar with U2 characters: he's the devil, and speaks from the point of view of the devil. Think Screwtape.
Background for anyone not familiar with Anglican church politics: at the time of this recording the Church of England had a relatively new leader who had made public his support for women in the priesthood.
