The deal is - when we really want action, the meetings are done close to the vest, no press releases announcing a call for them or anything like that. The public announcements are done AFTER there is has been agreement, not before. When an organization or individual makes announcements (and believe me, it was fully covered by all the progressive media outlets) before difficult meetings take place, the intention is to sink any hope for peace. They are attempting to elevate their own persona (which means that they now know that their own image is damaged) at the expense of their opposition. That's what the Archbishop of Canada is doing here.<BR/><BR/>If he were serious, he'd have an emissary that he trusts contact an emissary that Venables trusts and the emissaries would begin negotiations, quietly. Once an agreement is reached between the emissaries, it is elevated up the food chain. Depending on how serious and difficult the situation is, it might go through several more levels before it reaches the Archbishops themselves. By the time they meet, an agreement is all ready in place which they sign and then either issue a joint statement or meet together in a very public location.<BR/><BR/>That is not what we have here - in fact, it is the opposite. Believe me, there are these types of talks going on that I've described above and God willing, perhaps they will have success. It's not looking so good right now, though, especially when we're dealing with tactics like this one used by the Archbishop of Canada or the Bishop of San Diego.<BR/><BR/>bbAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17490745238430648958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23327221.post-25826992755886792772008-09-12T09:07:00.000-04:002008-09-12T09:07:00.000-04:00The meeting proposed by the ACI was to include all...The meeting proposed by the ACI was to include all the conservative primates who have accepted parishes from outside their jurisdiction, not just Venables. The meeting proposed by Hiltz is a lynch mob.<BR/><BR/>Kate PhelpsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23327221.post-21164636511542308362008-09-11T23:25:00.000-04:002008-09-11T23:25:00.000-04:00BB -This sounds like the meeting proposed in an op...BB -<BR/><BR/>This sounds like the meeting proposed in an open letter to the Anglican Communion by the contributors to Covenant-Communion.com, released on their blog on August 25, 2008. I heard about it from a post by Dan Martin. How has Archbishop Hiltz leaked a secret?Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09748809418423591030noreply@blogger.com
