Common sense trumps bad theology

The Archbishop's Panel of Reference report is in, and it has a strong endorsement of the Dallas Plan compromise as well as good recommendations for our future life in ECUSA. I would characterize it as a crackdown on intolerance in the General Convention. Unfortunately, it will likely be treated as but one more ignored plea in the Anglican circle of intervention. You can read it all here.

The local newspaper also covered the story in this article. Presiding Bishop Jefferts Schori's comment on the pastoral compromise called the Dallas Plan was of special interest:

"My sense is that the Dallas Plan provides for women and seems to be adequate, and our understanding is that it does seem to be responsive to the canons," she said.
