The archbishop of Canterbury, the Most Rev. Justin Welby, on Tuesday announced his resignation, days after a report concluded that he had failed to ensure a proper investigation into claims that more than 100 boys and young men were abused decades ago at Christian summer camps. —The New York Times, November 12, 2024 |

Lieve what cannot be seen—
But does not also mean
You can then not believe what you see!
