Matt Kennedy: Hospitality and Heretics: The Necessity of Discipline in the Anglican Communion
May 30, 2007

"We can have all the structure in the world, but if there is no core faith to uphold; no articulated standard, the structure will only serve to promote and enforce the viewpoints and positions of the most powerful party. And as various parties vie for positions of power the structure will become corrupt and useless as a vehicle for the spread of the gospel. In fact, since such a system necessarily tolerates heresy so long as heretics follow proper Communion procedure, the structure will ultimately fall prey to precisely the sort of infectious poison against which Paul and John warned so severely."
