Wrong.  I *must* remember to put the :-) at the end.

Actually I am probably an illegitimate "Bishop" in many theological
circles.  According to Eastern Christianity ideas, and probably Western,
I am an apostate, having rejected the doctrine of the Trinity, and set
my "orders" aside.  Start "Excellenting" me by all means, and I will
gleefully and with humorous intent reply, "Cut the crap!"
