Is there some way would could get an addition to the Windsor Report stating that using terms like "wholearchy" is a grave affront to Anglican unity?

Um, if I could I'd petition for an addendum that declared that terms such as "wholearchy" are not merely an affront, they're a grave threat to Anglican unity!

But then again, I'd be asking for everything to be said in plain and simple English (either modern or Elizabethan*), and that seems to run counter to, um, my observations of Anglicanism -- or at least some corners of same.


[*Latter preferred of course, but with modern sentence structures. *\;-) It's sometimes a major effort to grasp and chart some of the paragraph-long sentences in the Epistles, but necessary to inflecting them when reading aloud so the congregation will readily follow what's being said, just by listening. If I lose them, they lose the lesson. I'm thoroughly dead set against the School of Monotone Recitational Epistolators (readers), one of the banes of my growing up in the Episcopal church.]
