This is a welcome idea from the Catholic Church and particularly the head of the same church Cardinal John Njue which should have been the starting point for their agitation to avoid polarizing Christians and Muslims and dividing their own flock between NO and YES.

It will be a tall order for the clergy to win the confidence of those who have felt disenfranchised by their biased stand, however, it is never late for them to seek solutions that are non polarizing considering that the constitutional review process gives room for amendments and both the President and the prime Minister have given assurances that after passing the draft as per the time table laid down by the Parliamentary Select Committee, we can all sit down and relook at the clauses that are not generally agreed upon in a sober way, devoid of the grandstanding, coercion, propaganda, lies and misinformation.

The Catholic Church should be emulated by other churches in tandem with the christian doctrine of tolerance.
