PRELUDIUM: Brazil on the Anglican Covenant, particularly part 4.

The church of Brazil has done a remarkable job of considering the draft "Anglican Covenant." Their paper is published on Fr. Mark's blog among others. I commend it to your thoughtful reading.

My own reading of the draft (only I care about this) is about the same as the Brazilian in that I share their concerns.

My conclusion is that this is simply a bad idea. To have such a document is inevitably to alter the nature of the communion into something empire like. I think we dealt with that idea in 1776.
