NEW BUZZWORD!!

from Midwest Conservative Journal by The Editor

There are two aspects to a successful Episcopal Organization buzzword or cliche. It should (1) sound meaningful and (2) communicate absolutely nothing. Connecticut Episcopal Bishop Ian Douglas takes ”live into” to the next level:

“Many churches across the Anglican Communion because of conscience or their belief in what the holy spirit is up to in their local context have lived beyond the moratoria,” Douglas said.

Okay, I’ll play:

(1) I’m afraid I can’t accept this ticket, Officer. In my local context, I have lived beyond speed limits.
(2) Honey, I’m not sleeping with that woman! No, no, no, no! It’s just that in my local context, I have lived beyond monogamy.
(3) In my local context, I have lived beyond who owns what so no, you can’t have your Rolex back.

It’s got definite potential for greatness.
