I believe with all my heart that the Church of Jesus Christ should be a Church of blurred edges.

Belief in the resurrection is not an appendage to the Christian faith. It is the Christian faith.

A child born in a wealthy country is likely to consume, waste, and pollute more in his lifetime than 50 children born in developing nations. Our energy-burning lifestyles are pushing our planet to the point of no return. It is dawning on us at last that the life of our world is as vulnerable as the children we raise.

At a time when many Muslims in this country are living in fear, I want to say loud and clear that as a Christian leader I deeply respect your faith and believe that our common duty is to extend the hand of friendship, and to build bridges not walls.

What I'd say about that is that we must respect homosexuals in the church. I've got many homosexual friends, the issue is not in any way a homophobic reaction on my part.

In my time as Archbishop of Canterbury I've seen a growing sense of unity and mission.

Jesus was a management expert too.
