For Inquiring Minds–What was the Outcome of the Diocese of Atlanta Resolution on Pelagius?

Posted on November 10, 2011 by Kendall Harmon

From here:

R11-7
Contributions of Pelagius

Amended as follows (otherwise unchanged):

Be it resolved, that this 105th Annual Council of the Diocese of Atlanta recommend that the bishop appoint and oversee a committee of discernment overseen by our Bishop, to consider these matters as a means to understand [previously was “honor”] the contributions of Pelagius [previously was:”and reclaim his voice in”] to our tradition.

DEFEATED

    Thankful for those who put a spotlight on this. Probably would have passed without the blogosphere’s exposure.

    An unusual incident of theological common sense!

    I heard the proposer was shouted off the microphone when he rose to speak on his resolution. Can anyone confirm that?

    Anyone know by what margin this resolution was defeated?
