Right Reverend Debbie Sellin, the acting Bishop of Winchester, also emphasised that "It is the Church of England's task to lead in the work of enabling mutual understanding and strong, peaceable inter-faith relationships for the common good of society, and its ministers must take very seriously their role in initiating positive relationships between communities". READ: Western democracy is being destroyed to protect Israel High-ranking figures in the Church gave their support for the Tribunal's ruling, such as the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, who stated that "It's clear that the behaviour of Stephen Sizer has undermined Christian-Jewish relations, giving encouragement to conspiracy theories and tropes that have no place in public Christian ministry and the Church." ![]() That issue had reportedly already been resolved in an amicable manner, after he previously apologised to the Jewish community. The case was brought against him by the president of the Board of Deputies of British Jews, Marie van der Zyl, who cited 11 examples of those allegations between 20, and who said she was "pleased" with the "unambiguous statement in banning Stephen Sizer from being able to act as a Clerk in Holy Orders for 12 years".ĭespite acquitting him of most of the charges, the Tribunal upheld the complaint of four instances, especially his sharing of an article on the claim that Israel was behind the attacks on New York's twin towers on 11 September 2001. ![]() That ruling from December by the Bishop's Disciplinary Tribunal for the Diocese of Winchester found Dr Sizer guilty of having "provoked and offended the Jewish community", as well as having "engaged in anti-Semitic activity", all of which was "unbecoming to the office and work of a clerk in Holy Orders". The Church of England (CoE) has banned a pro-Palestinian priest over allegations of "anti-Semitic activity" and for criticism of the Israeli state, in a move seen by some as the bowing of the historic religious institution to the pro-Israel Zionist lobby.īarred from ministry for 12 years following the Church tribunal's ruling, 69-year-old Reverend Dr Stephen Sizer is effectively unable to conduct any priestly roles, such as marriage services or taking Communion during that time.
