The more I think about this "report" from the "special commission" the more I think it may be wise just to keep watch - and stay silent. There is something about this report that is like a bait, promising everything. Isn't that rather disingenuous - especially after the leaders of the church were proclaiming not so long ago that this was a prophetic decision for the Episcopal Church? Why now all these promises? The report promises everything, like a bait and switch. How does a church go from prophetic proclamations to making such disingenuous promises? It just doesn't ring true. So, we stay silent, we keep watch, and we wait.

BB,
ReplyDeleteI think Ephraim Radner gets it about right in his analysis of the Report. End result - not good enough.
