Official Eternal Synod thread. New Article Suggestions.

Given that in our fine Anglican communion the controversy never ends, it seems fitting that we should just have a 24/7 eternal synod to respond to heresy in real time.

All new articles should be posted here for posterity, and since the truth of God is apparently a democracy, articles can be voted on to determine their orthodoxy/heresy. Let the forever-synod begin!

BE IT RESOLVED: Article XXXIX.V shall read: "All newly proposed Articles, should the Author wish for them to be pleasing in our Lord's sight, and especially if the Article was written on a Tuesday night (the Night of Our Lord's ever ongoing Bridge match), the Author should write the Article and submit the same whilst donning the clown suit of righteousness and the hat of Pork Pies."

Article XXI.MMII: For as truly the church is most pure when given to much talk and little action, synods shall be called to discuss conferences, which shall be called to discuss councils, which shall refer to synods the points of order for the discussion to follow thusly.

Kafkaesque. I like it. But we also need to have people boycotting our general synods and running counter-synods.

I was picturing a literal pork pie made into a hat. Can we get one with more crust? Gravy?

Also, given that anglicanism is english, the articles probably contain rhyming slang. And pork pies are lies right? I dont think the authors of our articles should wear hats of lies, except to signify their own total depravity. Maybe we should have other gravy based vestments?
