The wild dance of the branches in the trees
leaned heavily upon the rest of the scene as seen
until the storm calmed to speak of peace as serene.
Stars appeared as remnants of splattered pattern
the lightning had blasted into bits of energy converting matter.
Silence prevailed to present serenity as the dancer's answer.
"Do not be frightened longer.
I am Truth heightened and stronger.
You have been spared from blast and fire
to reveal the triumph of desire.
I am the Word that joy will deploy
to form function to employ."
Dawn broke without speech.
Tears dripped from the height to teach
about proportion in the extension of reach.
Angels hovered over the dwelling place.
Hearts were restored to share singleness in space.
The darkness gave birth to the sun.
The beauty of nature was not undone.
Arise! Shine! Your light has come.
Glory has risen for your love to plumb.
My heart leaps to meet the sky.
Promise is the sign that gives me drive.
The Son is the Father to the man.
Space is the body for time to span.
This is my wish for those days to be.
Let them be bound by natural fidelity.
The divine kiss that joined lips in love
revealed secrets from the heavenly dove.
The kiss introduced the great sigh to man
like the Almighty breath from which life began.
That sigh led the way to the domain
where the glory of my soul remains.
This glory conserves resources as found and known
to protect and serve with the properties shown.
Compare untanned animal skin with tanned leather.
Buy the kind that stands bad weather better.
Spirit moved without motion to form
a vision of what time will adorn.
Gold shone as the wealth of radiant matter
to show the value of the gradient ladder.
Leadership shines as royal light
to govern property as a human right.
The Father made heaven for the earth
to protect the seen and unseen as heavenly worth.
Incense is an emblem shared
to find your steps on the squared stairs
that curve into the chamber up there.
The burn fills the air with aroma like a prayer.
The journey is there
for experience to declare.
The Son was begotten for the sake of salvation
by the power of the Spirit for incarnation.
Myrrh is steam distilled from resin for oil.
The oil is an ointment for the skin to recover from toil.
Three kings made the case for royal succession.
The family was honored for security in confession.
The babe was esteemed by a radiant star
over the house of bread with a donkey and a cart.
Celebrants of Mithra, they saw Christ as the Son
whom the heavens proclaimed as the divine One.
The star appeared in the East
before the celebration of the solstice feast.
They carried a chest
from which to draw their best.
They saw the mother with her child.
They knelt to see upon whom the star had smiled.
These Gentiles offered myrrh, incense and gold
to help your three-fold office unfold.
The prophet, priest and king
offered atonement to help people sing.
The atonement was offered once for all
that all might be saved by the Savior's call.
Myrrh and incense are derived from sap
that flows like tears from certain plants.
Tears that from true repentance fall
are shed in thanks for the call.
Prayers are made as gifts from the heart
to the God of love for the brand new start.
Gentiles have become fellow heirs that share the promise
in the good news of salvation by the twin to Thomas.
The wise men never went to Herod again.
They did not see the king as a friend.
Herod was a Roman client.
His role as king was viewed as defiant.
A king of heaven was defined as treason.
The trial of Jesus would not need another reason.
His course was set from his birth.
His plea for justice held real worth.
Finding Christ is our intent.
From misdirection we will repent.
We glorify our loving Teacher.
Faith is love for our Leader.
Only begotten from the Father,
the choir of angels sing for your honor.
The Holy Spirit flew as a dove above the water
that cleansed your flesh at the baptist's offer.
The uncreated had assumed human nature.
The ancient rite for initiation gave the public favor to savor.
The passage moved the baptized from unclean to clean.
This has served as a symbol for good health from hygiene.
Water is piped from the source to each among us.
Cleaning is used to remove unhealthy substance.
The Son was seen as blessed by heaven.
The Father bestowed essential presence as a leaven.
Republic can learn from royalty.
Defense from attack is our chief loyalty.
The clouds refresh with the reign of justice.
The wind blows breath for the august among us.
Pledge allegiance to order for the economy.
Organize service with respect for policy.
Illumination lights sight for the earth.
Darkness gives rest from functional work.
The luminous stars embellish night with joyous luster.
Gravity shows itself in each star cluster.
Paradise is open to public participation.
Righteousness aspires to incarnation.
Pledge allegiance to the flag and the state for which it stands.
The flow of water has cleansed perspective to receive that which is grand.
Sin has been washed from the portal of perception
that thought may work against error from deception.
Bitterness has been turned to the sweetness of relief by release.
Happiness has earned completeness with belief that doesn't cease.
Pledge allegiance to what is right about the design for executive authority.
Agreement by the collegial body has to be good for the economy of the whole majority.
I close my eyes to look for the meeting place of the waters.
Under the lake's smile, the closed well gropes for order with borders.
My veins reach for the currents that don't strain.
There someone walks quietly with silence across the terrain.
The water-lilies end to show that I’ve kept a rein on my life.
Heavy drops fall on green leaves and petals white.
Your face is seen in the empty garden free from strife.
The water that touches you. touches the motionless reserve of a swan
moving as graciously and gracefully as the wings of the dawn.
The white wings among the living trees reflected by the fluency of light
hold the promise of what can be obtained with the blessings of sight.
This road has no end. Recollections from your childhood years,
from those who left, those lost in sleep, in the graves of the sea beyond the fount of tears,
ask bodies you’ve loved to bow under the branches of the trees where fears
are dispelled by the auspicious appearance of eternal presence in a ray of sun so dear
that faith is engendered as the dog leaps into this new year.
There where the ray of sun, stood naked, stood still, the dog swims
in happy swirls turned by the subtle pressure of pleasure from the joy that sensation gives.
I've kept a rein on my life with a book in hand,
a scar below the knee and a memory of sand
in the winter of existence at the edge of land.
The memories remain where the north wind blew
gusts like an alien voice across the newness of the view.
I thought that I had learned to live with the emptiness of the hollow.
I would place my ear against the edge of the sea shell to hear the waves follow
the flight of the bird through the air that traced the race of the swallow
through space with levity in brevity and a size that remained shallow
until the flight found a place to rest, to turn, to chirp or take a seed to hallow.
Equanimity was found in not expecting any more than proximity to the feast.
When I did not feel welcome to join, I refused to despair at least.
When water rushed in to fill the emptiness, it was a surprise
to feel the sudden fluency of fluid rise as a wellspring to devise
the sight of the size of the great space of heaven in the sky.
The burning bush by the door was aflame with the fire of Spirit
yet only he who took off his shoes was willing to go near it.
The rest moved through the bushes to pick berries.
The taste was sweet enough to repeat, but the satisfaction varied.
Songs of thankfulness and praise
are to the Lord of berries raised.
Christ was manifested by the star
to the sages from afar.
The branch of royal David's stem
saw his birth at Bethlehem.
Anthems are to you addressed,
God in man made manifest.
You were baptized in Jordan's stream
as prophet, priest and king supreme.
Cana saw the wedding guest
in your Godhead evidenced.
Revealed in the power divine
you changed the water into wine.
Anthems are to you addressed,
God in man made manifest.
Give the monarch your divine sense of measure
that your royalty may be passed to treasure.
Let your people govern with justice
that the poor may learn the joy of humbleness.
Help that heaven can yield
is found in the beauty of the stone in the field.
Let the mountains yield prosperity
that the hills may produce verity in parity.
Defend what's needed in the population
to preserve the opportunity to serve the nations.
Let Christ live in heart as long as the sun and moon endure
that we may live in kind with love that's sure.
Each generation will know their place
inside the jurisdiction of the human race.
His grace will reign over the winter field
that spring, summer and fall will produce a yield.
Rightness will flourish with directed mind
that proper reconstruction will be that which we divine.
The rule of law will reign from sea to sea.
People will become what we were meant to be.
Enemies will work together
until animosity is not engendered.
Negotiation will resolve dispute.
Something beneficial will serve as substitute.
Emergence from convergence generates life.
DNA is the key to generation in tune with the fife.
The cell wall is a symbol for defense.
The defense defends against the externally immense.
Emergence takes place after convergence and bond in unity.
A greater entity emerges than the sum of elemental spawn for impunity.
Christ has seen the horse, the bull, the camel and the castle.
Commerce has required the Word to reduce negotiable hassle.
The spear, the sword, the arrow and the bullet
have been hand to hand defense against the enemy's bullock.
The greatest enemy has been media fiction about atrocity.
The crusader knight was in error about terror as policy.
He found his home on the range with lethal ferocity.
The jet fighter has fired missiles with diffident velocity.
The west has invaded the middle east to attack 'terrorist' impetuosity,
yet the 'beast' upon which they feast is the desire for peace without pomposity.
We were not taught to covet the spirit of fear.
Fear is for defense from attack that is near.
It is the source for courage that is held as dear.
Long may we live in Christ
to oppose what is wrong with the official heist.
Liberal spending that proposes itself as the answer through expansion
supports those who agree to pay for destruction as enhancement.
Citizens are taxed to pay for problems that are created by covert agency
so liberal spenders can charge more to not fix the problems caused by the vagrancy.
Immigrants are imported to make domestic matters worse.
The taxpayer is left to pay for what amounts to a curse.
Pledge allegiance to the law that allows for defense against attack.
Let the republic learn from monarchy to keep conservative spending on track.
72 Deus, judicium
1 Give the King your justice, O God,
and your righteousness to the King's Son;
2 That he may rule your people righteously
and the poor with justice.
3 That the mountains may bring prosperity to the people,
and the little hills bring righteousness.
4 He shall defend the needy among the people;
he shall rescue the poor and crush the oppressor.
5 He shall live as long as the sun and moon endure,
from one generation to another.
6 He shall come down like rain upon the mown field,
like showers that water the earth.
7 In his time shall the righteous flourish;
there shall be abundance of peace till the moon shall be no more.
8 He shall rule from sea to sea,
and from the River to the ends of the earth.
9 His foes shall bow down before him,
and his enemies lick the dust.
10 The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall pay tribute,
and the kings of Arabia and Saba offer gifts.
11 All kings shall bow down before him,
and all the nations do him service.
12 For he shall deliver the poor who cries out in distress,
and the oppressed who has no helper.
13 He shall have pity on the lowly and poor;
he shall preserve the lives of the needy.
14 He shall redeem their lives from oppression and violence,
and dear shall their blood be in his sight.
15 Long may he live!
and may there be given to him gold from Arabia;
may prayer be made for him always,
and may they bless him all the day long.
16 May there be abundance of grain on the earth,
growing thick even on the hilltops;
may its fruit flourish like Lebanon,
and its grain like grass upon the earth.
17 May his Name remain for ever
and be established as long as the sun endures;
may all the nations bless themselves in him and call him blessed.
18 Blessed be the Lord God, the God of Israel,
who alone does wondrous deeds!
19 And blessed be his glorious Name for ever!
and may all the earth be filled with his glory.
Amen. Amen.
Isa. 60:1
Arise! Shine! Your light has come.
The glory of the LORD has risen upon you.

Emergence
Emergence is the new evolution.
There is the sense that the origin of life was an act of emergence. How this happened is not known. The birth of a child gives us the sense that life emerged from the assembly of microbial organisms, then evolved.
The baby had germinated from the penetration of an egg in the womb by sperm. The fetus developed from cell reproduction and differentiation. Cell generation produced the fetal form. The form grew into a viable human life. The life emerged from the womb.
Somehow consciousness emerges from the brain and cognition is emergent from instruction in the language.

Sydney, New South Wales, Australia
Sydney
Sydney is located in a basin on the southeast coast of Australia. The Tasman Sea is located to the east. It sits between Australia and New Zealand. The Blue Mountains rise in the west. The Hawkesbury River runs north of the city. The river runs into Broken Bay.
19th Century
Sydney was established as a penal outpost for convicts from England and Ireland in 1786. It was designated to replace the American colonies.
There were no prison buildings. Punishment for offenders was transportation to another location distant from the offense. Serious offenses were punished by flogging or hanging.
The male and female convicts did not have the skills to establish a colony. Early efforts at agriculture were not very successful. Supplies from overseas were scarce. There were 3,546 males and 766 females that landed in what was to become Sydney between 1788 and 1792.
Officers and convicts faced starvation when supplies ran low. Little was cultivated from the land. Many of the natives suffered from a small pox epidemic in 1789. Roads, bridges, wharves and public buildings were constructed using convict labor. The town had banks, markets and well-established thoroughfares by 1822.
There were conflicts with the natives in the Frontier Wars between 1790 and 1816. Irish convicts led the Castle Hill Rebellion in 1804 in the New South Wales. The Rum Rebellion of 1808 was led by the New South Wales Corps against the governor. The New South Wales Corps was the military force for the colony.
Macquarie served as the governor from 1810 to 1821. He established public works, a bank, churches and charitable institutions. He sought good relations with the Aborigines.
The year 1840 was the final year for convict transportation to Sydney. The population had grown to 35,000. Gold was discovered in the colony in 1851. Thousands of people traveled to the area to make money. The population reached 200,000 by 1871.
Samuel Alexander was born on January 6, 1859 at 436 George Street in Sydney. This is currently the commercial heart for the city. He was the third son of Samuel Alexander, a prosperous saddler, and Eliza nee Sloman. Both of his parents were Jewish. His father died just before he was born.
Eliza moved to the adjacent colony of Victoria in 1863 or 1864. They went to live at St Kilda. Alexander was placed at a private school kept by a Mr Atkinson.
He was sent to Wesley College in Melbourne in 1871. He was always grateful for the efficiency and comprehensiveness of his education. He matriculated at the University of Melbourne on 22 March 1875 for the arts.
He was placed in the first class in both his first and second years. He was awarded the classical and mathematical exhibitions in his first year. He won exhibitions in Greek, Latin, English, mathematics, natural philosophy and natural science in his second year.
Alexander left for England in an attempt to win a scholarship in May 1877. He sat for a scholarship at Balliol College in Oxford. He achieved second place and won the scholarship.
He obtained a first class in classical and mathematical moderations at Oxford. He also earned a first class for Greats for the BA degree in 1881.
Alexander was made a fellow of Lincoln College after taking his degree. He remained a philosophy tutor from 1882 to 1893. It was during this period that he developed his interest in psychology. It was a neglected subject at the time.
He won the Green moral philosophy prize in 1887 with an essay on the subject "In what direction does Moral Philosophy seem to you to admit or require advance?" This was the basis for his volume Moral Order and Progress. It was published in 1889 and went into its third edition in 1899.
Alexander had altered his views to some extent after his book was published. He considered that the work had become dated by 1912. He contributed articles on philosophical subjects to Mind, the Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society and the International Journal of Ethics during the period of his fellowship at Lincoln.
He did some traveling on the continent. He was in Germany working at the psychological laboratory of Hugo Münsterberg at Freiburg in the winter of 1890–91.
Alexander had wanted to obtain a professorship for some time. He made three unsuccessful attempts before he was appointed at the Owens College, Manchester in 1893. He remained there for the rest of his life. He quickly became a leading figure in the university.
Alexander was a contemporary of Alfred North Whitehead. He influenced Whitehead. He mentored others who went on to become major figures in 20th century British philosophy.
Samuel Alexander is best known for his role in British Emergentism. This was an early twentieth century movement. The notion of ‘emergence’ explained how novel properties might emerge from underlying substrata. Consciousness emerges from the brain for example.
Alexander associated with both of the competing philosophical ideologies of his period. British Hegelianism (idealism) and new realism. The realism movement later became known as analytic philosophy.
Alexander was well known in British philosophy in his lifetime for his metaphysics. His metaphysical system was drawn from Spinoza in an original way. Spacetime is taken to be the ontological foundation of the universe.
He argued in Space, Time and Deity that all other existents including matter, minds and creation emerge from spacetime in an ontological hierarchy. His early thesis had equated spacetime and matter. The statement was called 'super-substantivalism.'
Alexander was one of the first philosophers to investigate the consequences of understanding space and time as combined into the four-dimensional manifold for spacetime. Time is the additional dimension in the three dimensional measure of anything in space.

London, England, UK
London
London is located next to the Thames River. The Thames Valley is a floodplain surrounded by gently rolling hills. Parliament Hill, Addington Hills and Primrose Hill are included. London was built from the lowest bridging point on the river. The Thames used to be much broader and shallower with extensive marshlands. The shores used to reach five times their present width at high tides.
The river has been extensively embanked since the Victorian Era. Many of the tributaries now flow underground. The tides of the river make the city susceptible to floods. The threat has increased over time due to the slow but continuous rise in the high water level from the slow ‘tilting’ of the British Isles caused by post-glacial rebound.
The city has a temperate oceanic climate. It receives less precipitation than Rome, Bordeaux, Lisbon, Naples, Sydney and New York City. Summers are generally warm. London’s average high for July is 24 C (74 F).
Winters are generally cool with little temperature variation. The average low for December is 2.7 C (36.9 F). Heavy snow is rare, but it usually snows at least once each winter.
There is a considerable urban heat island effect due to the large size of the city. The center is 5 C (9 F) warmer than the suburbs and outskirts.
The London Natural History Society has stated that London is “one of the World’s Greenest Cities.” More than 40 per cent has green space or open water. Two thousand species of flowering plant have been found. One hundred and twenty species of fish are supported by the tidal Thames. Over 60 species of bird nest in the central part of the city.
London has traditionally been Christian. It has a large number of churches. St. Paul’s Cathedral and Southwark Cathedral are well known as Anglican administrative centers. The Archbishop of Canterbury is the principal bishop for the Church of England and the world wide Anglican Communion. His main residence is at the Palace in the Lambeth borough of London.
The largest religious groupings are Christians (48.4 per cent), followed by those of no religion (20.7 per cent), Muslims (12.4 per cent), no response (8.5 per cent), Hindus (5.0 per cent), Jews (1.8 per cent), Sikhs (1.5 per cent), Buddhists (1.0 per cent) and other (0.6 per cent) according to the 2011 Census.
Observance is very low within the Anglican denomination despite the prevalence of Anglican churches. Church attendance continues on a long, slow, steady decline, according to Church of England statistics.
The city had come to be known for smog caused by coal in the 1950’s. Pea-souper’ fog epitomized old-world London in Hollywood movies, but it was a feature of the city-scape from the time that coal had started to be used as a fuel for heat and lighting from 1845.
The Clean Air Act was part of a general move towards a cleaner environment. It was directed in particular against the burning of coal in urban areas. The Act was in response to the severe London smog of 1952. The combination of fog and smoke proved to be lethal. It was reported that more than 4,000 people were killed. Another Clean Air Act followed in 1968.
Justin Portal Welby was born on January 6, 1956 in London, England. His parents were Gavin Welby and Jane nee Portal. Jane had served as a personal secretary to Sir Winston Churchill from December 1949 until her marriage to Gavin in April 1955.
Gavin was the son of Bernard Weiler, a German-Jewish immigrant and importer of luxury items. He changed his family name to Welby shortly after the First World War broke out.
Gavin and Jane were divorced in 1959 when Justin was three years old. Gavin died in 1977 when Justin was about sixteen. His mother married Charles Williams in 1975. He was a business executive and first-class cricketer.
Welby was educated at St. Peter’s School, Seaford, Eton College and Trinity College, Cambridge. He graduated in 1978 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in history and law. He was later promoted to a Master of Arts by seniority as per tradition.
The future Archbishop of Canterbury related his conversion experience in a July 2013 interview with the Daily Telegraph. He said that while he was at Eton he had a “vaguely assumed that there was a God.” He didn’t believe though and he wasn’t interested at all.
When he was praying with a Christian friend at Cambridge on the evening of 12 October 1975, he suddenly felt a clear sense of change. There was the sense of a presence of something that had not been there before in his life. He has since said that he finds who he is in Jesus Christ, “not in genetics.” Identity in him never changes.
Welby worked for eleven years in the oil industry. Five of them were for the French oil company Elf Aquitaine based in Paris.
He became treasurer of the oil exploration group Enterprise Oil plc in London. He was mainly concerned with West African and North Sea oil projects. He retired from his executive position in 1989. He said that he sensed a calling from God to be ordained.
He became a congregation member at the evangelical Anglican church of the Holy Trinity in Brompton, London during his oil industry career.
He studied theology from 1989 to 1992. He trained for the priesthood at Cranmer Hall and St. John's College, Durham. He was awarded a Bachelor of Arts degree and a Diploma of Ministry in 1992. He was ordained a deacon at Petertide 28 June 1992. He was elevated to priest the next Petertide 27 June 1993. He was ordained both times by Simon Barrington-Ward, Bishop of Coventry, at Coventry Cathedral.
He became a curate at Chilvers Coton and St. Mary the Virgin, Astley from 1992 to 1995. He was selected as the rector of St. James' Church, Southam. He later became vicar of St. Michael and All Angels, Ufton, Diocese of Coventry, from 1995 to 2002.
He was made canon residentiary of Coventry Cathedral and the co-director for international ministry at the International Centre for Reconciliation in 2002. He became sub-dean and Canon for Reconciliation Ministry in 2005.
He was appointed Dean of Liverpool in December 2007. He was installed there on 8 December 2007.
He has written about ethics and finance. His books Managing the Church? Order and Organisation in a Secular Age and Explorations in Financial Ethics were published.
His dissertation had been an exploration into whether companies can sin. It makes the point that the structure for a system can "make it easier to make the right choice or the wrong choice."
A booklet entitled Can Companies Sin?: "Whether," "How" and "Who" in Company Accountability was published by Grove Books in 1992. He has said that the Benedictine and Franciscan orders in the Anglican churches have influenced his spiritual formation along with Catholic social instruction.
He stated in an interview by the BBC in 2011 that his appointment as the Bishop of Durham was a challenge and a privilege. He stated that he had a passionate desire to serve Jesus Christ in a church "vigorously full of spiritual life." His election was confirmed at York Minster on 29 September 2011. He left Liverpool Cathedral on 2 October.
He was consecrated as a bishop at York Minster on 28 October 2011. He was elevated to the Bishop of Durham in Durham Cathedral on 26 November 2011.
He was introduced to the House of Lords on 12 January 2012. He sits on the Lords Spiritual bench. He gave his maiden speech on 16 May 2012. He was asked to join the Parliamentary Commission on Banking Standards in 2012.
Welby explained that senior bank executives avoided being given information about difficult issues to allow them to "plead ignorance." This was stated following the report of the Parliamentary Commission on Banking Standards Commission in July 2013.
He also said that he would possibly have behaved in the same way. He warned against punishing by naming and shaming individual bankers. He compared the behavior to being exposed to a lynch mob.
He emerged as a candidate to be the next Archbishop of Canterbury on 6 November 2012. He expressed doubt that he would be selected. He had only been a bishop for a short amount of time. His appointment to the position was announced on 9 November 2012.
His confirmation of election ceremony to the See of Canterbury took place at St. Paul's Cathedral on 4 February 2013. It was announced the following day that he would be appointed to the Privy Council of the United Kingdom. This is standard for archbishops. The order for his appointment was made on 12 February. He made the oath of office on 13 March.
He was enthroned as the Archbishop of Canterbury at Canterbury Cathedral on 21 March 2013. This is the day on which the memory of Thomas Cranmer is made in the calendar of the Anglican churches.
He made an official visit to the Vatican on 14 June 2013. He met with senior Curial officials including Cardinal Kurt Koch, President of the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity. He had an audience with Pope Francis and prayed at the tombs of St. Peter and Pope John Paul II.
The Archbishop has been a strong supporter of the Anglican consecration of women as bishops. He stated the aim to ordain women as bishops in November 2013.
He affirmed that others have the space to disagree. He called on Anglican Christians to avoid fear, prejudice and suspicion to grasp "cultural change in the life of the church."
The change does not diminish the need for the church to flourish. It doesn't mean that communities that have disagreed will be forced to take a woman as a bishop.
The challenge to make the change work for the church is too provide training and development in method in order to make things happen. It is not just a matter of stating a change in policy. The ordination has to be implemented in a way that will help the church community to build love and trust with growth.
The alienation of opponents is not the objective. It is hoped that a zero-sum game where people feel gain for one side is an inevitable loss for the other will be avoided. Caution, cooperation and unity are required for success.
Slightly revised legislation to allow women to be ordained bishops in the Church of England was agreed upon in July 2014. It became law in November 2014.
Same sex marriage has not been acknowledged by the Anglican Communion. The Church of England blesses partnerships. Marriage is defined as between a man and a woman as indicated in the bible.
The conservative majority on the US Supreme Court allowed for homosexual marriage. Many states legalized the institution shortly after the decision. There is question as to whether blessed union in partnership or sanctification in marriage is better. The punishment of homosexuality is no longer allowed by law in Great Britain.
Welby expressed the feeling that the rise in energy prices in the UK appears to be inexplicable. He also feels that energy companies have a responsibility towards customers.
The companies should not price their service only to maximize their own opportunity. The legislature should not authorize increased prices to prohibit competition from alternate energy sources.
The impact of the high prices on people particularly with low incomes is going to be severe. They have been allowed control of something everyone has to buy. That amount of power comes with a huge responsibility to serve society in a compensatory way.
The Archbishop is concerned about Fuel poverty. He feels that the problem is serious as energy costs have risen while incomes have remained static or caused to decline.
Justin Welby is married to Caroline nee Eaton. They have had six children. Their seven month old daughter, Johanna, died in a car crash in France in 1983. He established a special day for bereaved parents at Coventry Cathedral. There is now an annual service there to commemorate the lives of children who have died.
He is grateful for his education. He has been praised for sending his own children to local state schools.
He speaks French and has admitted to being a Francophile. He lived and worked in France. He listed his hobbies as "most things French and sailing."

Sendai, Miyagi, Japan
Sendai is located on the east coast of Henshu. It is about half way between Tokyo and Hokkaido.
The area for the city stretches from the Pacific Ocean to the Ou Mountains. These are the eastern and western borders for the Miyagi Prefecture.
The Hirose River flows 45 km (28 miles) on its way to passing through the city. The river is well known as a symbol for Sendai.
Aoba Castle was built close to the river to use it as a natural moat. The river flooded frequently until the 1950's. Dams and levees were constructed in the 1960's and 1970's have made such floods rare.
Most mountains in the area are dormant volcanoes. Many hot springs can be found in the city. Hydrothermal activity gives the springs the heat.
The Tohoku earthquake occurred offshore in 2011. It had a magnitude of 9.0. Sendai is 41 miles to the north of Fukushima by air travel. The earthquake set off a massive tsunami. The nuclear disaster at Fukushima took place in 2011.
Sendai has a humid subtropical climate. It features warm wet summers. The average high temperature for August is 27.9 C (82.2 F). The winters are cool and dry. The average low temperature for January is -1.7 C (28.9 F). The summers aren't as hot as Tokyo. The winters are milder than Sapporo.
Sendai is the capital for Miyagi. It is the largest city in the Tohoku region. It was the second largest city north of Tokyo.
The city was founded in 1600 by the daimyo Date Masamune. The nickname is the City of Trees. There are about 60 zelkova trees on Jozenji and Aoba Street.
Ishida Ayumi was born on January 7, 1997 in Sendai, Miyagi, Japan.
She was practicing to become a member of the cheerleading squad in Sendai before her audition with Morning Musume. When the electricity went out due to the Earthquake she kept practicing her dance with candles.
Daaishi was selected from Morning Musume's 10th generation audition to join the group along with Iikubo Haruna, Sato Masaki and former Hello Pro Kenshuusei member Kudo Haruka on September 29, 2011. She is the first Morning Musume member to come from Miyagi.
The tenth generation made their official debut on the same day they were announced as new members. They performed the song "Tomo" in the BELIEVE Concert tour with Takahashi Ai.
She enjoys modeling and dance. She has had a number of photobooks published.
