    A is for Anglican is for Affirming things and for Adopting things even when they’re mutually contradictory?

    It will be entirely up to the synod to decide whether to adopt either of these motions. My hunch is that it will adopt one of them resoundingly.

    I hope the Synod votes against the first motion and approves the second motion.

    Yes, I know that you don’t want to hear any more about the conference. There is nothing more boring than people going on and on about a conference to people who were not at it. (SEC21, I am talking about you!) But indulge me a moment. This is what I have submitted to the Scottish…
