“a constituent member of the Anglican Communion and in full communion with the See of Canterbury.”

Does the ABC agree to this?

The ABC would have to. Any action otherwise would require Rowan the Fuzzy to make a decision- something he is clearly not capable of doing. He may not be able to avoid that situation anyway.

TEC will likely organize those who want to remain Episcopailians into a diocese with a “company man” as bishop. If that bishop does not already have a Lambeth invitation and is not a Gene Robinson type, Rowan would be obliged to invite him since he would be a TEC bishop with jurisdiction. What then would be done with Scofield? If Scofield remains on the invite list, then why aren’t the CANA and AMiA bishops not invited? If Scofield is disinvited, then Williams would be signalling that American Anglicans must adhere to and live with TEC innovations, or leave the Anglican Communion altogether. That would be the end.

Rowan William’s only plausible way forward is to disinvite Scofield and not invite or disinvite whatever lackey ECUSA installs in Fresno.
