THE ANGLICAN COVENANT AS FRUITCAKE

The elements of the Chicago Lambeth Quadrilateral and the Marks of Mission, and bits of Scripture and dollops of assorted Anglican Premises have been folded into the batter of the Anglican Communion Covenant like so many raisins, candied citrons, cherries, and whatever those semi-gelatinous green things are, go to form part of the conglomerate of Fruitcake.

From Tobias Haller at In a Godward Direction.

My conclusion as to whether we should adopt the covenant is a bit different from that of Tobias, but his analogy is excellent.
