Do they think that someday we'll "get it right"? Or are they waiting until another hundred presbyteries leave PC(USA)? - Mike Zorn Sun, 18 Jul 2010 17:46:14 +0100 http://www.pres-outlook.com/insights-opinions/blog/GA-BLOG-An-Explanation-of-the-Procedural-Questions-on-the-Definition-Marriage-at-General-Assembly.html#comment-5547 Adam, great summary of things. One additional point I would add: I think the car went off the rails when the Assembly somehow ended up with a substitute motion where the substitute and main motions were essentially identical. Robert’s Rules is not supposed to let us get there, but somehow this slipped through. From this outsider’s perspective, that’s when the mayhem began that led eventually to the final motion to answer everything with this one thing – a routine move that felt particularly good because of the late hour. - Andy James Fri, 09 Jul 2010 07:39:09 +0100
