In defense of anxiety

The PB is an excellent communicator. She presents her case well. But there is something that I think that she and some of our other bishops may not understand. It is not helpful when people who have power tell people who do not have power to dial down their anxieties, move beyond their fears, etc. Expressing our anxieties is often the only way we have of communicating with leaders who otherwise might not hear us, and might be willing to sacrifice our continued membership in the Church in order to achieve their own aims.
