Third Wayism is infecting everyone these days.

Archbishop Raises Doubts over Resurrection

newsmax.com

Tony Blair has led the Third Way march in Great Britain, as the Clintons have here.

The Third Way is socialism using non-economic means. It calls for a restructuring of the social, educational, religious, medical and other major institutions that create the framework for a modern capitalist society.

Blair set the tone when his new education ministers started reforming Britain's national school curriculum. Among the topics immediately dumped from teacher lesson plans was Winston Churchill.

No matter that Churchill had helped win World War II and had been a major figure for more than five decades of the century. No matter that some historians view him as the most important figure of the century. Blair's government had him stricken from all British history lessons.

Such Third Wayism has a way of spreading like a bad disease.

Earlier this week, Britain's Daily Mail reported that the archbishop of Canterbury, George Carey, has raised significant doubts as to whether Jesus of Nazareth ever rose from the dead.

The archbishop's pronouncement might be akin to the pope stepping out on his balcony overlooking St. Peter's Square to announce he just realized he may not be a Catholic after all.

Using the opportunity of the Millennium -- which marks 2,000 years from the birth of the Jewish carpenter -- Carey wrote to the faithful, "I can tell you frankly that while we can be absolutely sure that Jesus lived and that He was certainly crucified on the Cross, we cannot with the same certainty say that we know He was raised by God from the dead."

Carey argued that the resurrection "goes against human experience, and our first instinct is incredulity." He also suggested the idea of the Resurrection may have helped contribute to the Holocaust.

The archbishop is the head of the Church of England. He is the second-most prominent figure in Christendom after the pope. He has now questioned the validity of the central tenet of all Christian belief.

The Church of England, as a state-sponsored religion, has close ties to the state. The archbishop apparently didn't think he'd ruffle any feathers with Tony "Third Way" Blair.

Carey blames the Jesus movement for all evil throughout history. He wrote that Christianity "has contributed to the oppression of women, to policies of imperialism, slavery and the repression of free speech."
