women are leaving the church because they’re witches? – it is at times like this that I sympathise with Mary Daly’s extreme reaction to misogyny in which she refers to herself as a witch (the stem of the word being ‘wit’ – clever women had to be burnt as witches you see…)

The question is not what is the matter with this man? There are all sorts of strange people abroad. (Wicca influences Archbishop Jefferts Shori indeed! What nonsense.)
I think the question should be is why does the Sunday Telegraph, supposedly a “serious” newspaper, employ this man as their religious affairs correspondent.

Percy Dearmer worried about the feminisation of the church nearly a century ago!

Some things will never change
and the Daily Telegraph is still stuck at about the same time as Dearmer at times
at least imho!!
