In your response here you are missing my point: I specifically said there was not a hidden victory for the Covenant so my maths has not led me astray. My point is that focusing on the defeat of the Covenant in the C of E can obscure the fact that support for it, measured by percentages of votes across all voting dioceses, is almost even. You might also note that I am not relying on my own mathematical expertise but on that of Thinking Anglicans!Peter Carrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09535218286799156659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915617830446943975.post-302639422999060532012-03-26T21:54:30.459+13:002012-03-26T21:54:30.459+13:00Peter, your expert mathematical brain is playing t...Peter, your expert mathematical brain is playing tricks on you. No matter how much you try to spring a victory for the Covenant in the Church of England, the process has determined; it really is 'dead in the water'.<br /><br />I'm looking forward to the debate in our synod. I hope to be speaking against your proposal for the affirmative. I may not have a vote but I still have speaking rights.Father Ron Smithhttp://kiwianglo.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
