"But we have nonetheless come to a common understanding of the needs of the Communion with respect to the imperatives of common life in Christ. So why would someone like Bp O’Neill go forward in contradicting these affirmations and at this time, given his previous willingness to hold back in the context of these kinds of common views? What has changed? Certainly not the “mind” of the Communion as earlier articulated; nor the burdens of common life within the Communion. "
