- Notes
- "I find this covenant something of a mystery ('What happens if we say no ?' Sept. 2012, p. 1). What it is about has completely escaped me or I have just forgotten. Many people know there is a covenant, but not what for or why: some even say, 'What covenant ?' .... I see it us recommended as a way of healing division over same-sex marriage. Well, the divisions are there to stay, unfortunately. The Archbishop of Canterbury should have stood up for the faith, not rewritten Bible and called it 'The Windsor Report'. With a covenant, there should be give and take, and I am left wondering what changes it may lead to in the church".
