Thumbs Down on The Anglican Covenant.

So this is what prompted the previous post.

Tobias Haller has been writing on his blog In A Godward Direction about the Anglican Covenant off and on.  This particular post has been floating around the Anglican Blogosphere for a while. It's one of the ones I commented on.  Here is his most recent post about the covenant.

I've been noodling around with a response to Tobias, but Elizabeth Kaeton managed to articulate it much better here on Telling Secrets.

The Anglican Covenant is a bad idea. Period. It is an attempt to draw circles and define who is in and who is out. Bad theology, bad policy, just plain bad. No amount of verbal juggling can turn this pig's ear into a silk purse.
