Bennett consciously took a different tack on the article and wrote a carefully constructed demolition of the hierarchy of the Church of England from a conservative viewpoint, which he himself described as "wicked". In it Bennett excoriated what he perceived as an intolerant liberal elite in the church, headed by the then Archbishop of Canterbury, Robert Runcie, a process which he felt would follow a trail already blazed by the Episcopal Church in the United States of America and would lead inexorably to a steep decline in the fortunes of the church. Specifically, he argued that Runcie was guilty of cronyism, appointing to high office only those whom he had known through Westcott House (Bennett's own theological college) or Ripon College Cuddesdon theological colleges or else the Canterbury and St Albans dioceses.
