Definitions

We have been asked to provide some definitions for terms we will be using in our Anglican Authority class. I have submitted my more formal thoughts, but Heather, Si and I came up with an alternate set last night, and I'm not sure these aren't also applicable. So, for your consideration:

authority
"Do what I say, dammit."

tradition
"That's the way we've always done it."

innovation
"But we've never done it that way before!"

orthodoxy
"We're right."

heresy
"You're wrong."

persuasion
"Because I said so, that's why."

Any thoughts?
