Doesn't it bother you that ministers are in essence being urged to be duplicitous?

I think this really is that "slippery slope" people like to talk about so much.

As I said, if there is an issue... addendums do the job. Were it a legal document, those addendums are words that MEAN something. It is not ideal, but even I see that we could be a bit more inclusive. If it works - it works.

Addendums in this case are a joke. They completely negate the content and intent of the AS.

If the AS was a mistake then these officials who are constantly urging those who can't sign it in good faith to do so anyway with addendums or "with reservation" should be men enough to say publicly it was a mistake and repeal it.

Yes - and it is the unusual spelling.

You may be right. I realize much of this comes down dampering dissent. No one wants to see splits or splinters.
