| Anglican Church In North America Continues to Grow! | |

“The thing is the Episcopal Church (or ashram, mosque, coven, whatever they call themselves now) always seems to pretend like the schism hasn't occurred.”--Dr. Zoom Zoom
And you expect us American Episcopalians to take you con evos seriously when you write stuff like this?

Fulcrum's self-important huffing and puffing will have absolutely zero influence on the decisions of The Episcopal Church. All you have done is to make clear to most American Episcopalians that even the self-styled “moderate” evangelicals in the CofE remain hostile to TEC. Big deal, we already knew that. If anything, you have made evangelicalism even more unpopular in the American Church than it has been up to now. As an “Affirming Catholic”, I encourage you to go even further in discrediting your theological faction with the members of my Church.

I think that Fr. Lewis more than adequately covers your concerns, Nersen:

No inter-communion “recognition” of the ACNA by the CofE is involved here, other than the fact that the CofE--like the rest of us--all “recognize” that ACNA “exists”, wants “to be Anglican,” can avail itself of methods “to request” to become formally in communion with the CofE, the TEC, the ACofC, the Anglican Communion, etc., etc. In essence, nothing has changed.
Now the matter can be allowed to die in the CofE and Communion bureaucracies, where ACofC and TEC supporters can keep the topic bottled up in committee forever, if necessary. This Synod vote also dramatically reduces the chance of any other ACNA “recognition” resolution being promoted hereafter. After all, “it’s being studied” it’s “in committee”, the ACNA “has yet to make a formal request,” that a request “is pending, and subject to...” etc., etc. Finis, in other words.
Folks in the UK should be aware that besides TEC there are about 20 Anglican Churches in North America. Each of them just as “recognized” by the CofE (and by the TEC and ACofC for that matter), as the ACNA.

Definately restrained. As has been explained to you time and time again, the fastest growing religious group in America today is None Of The Above--directly the result of disgust with right-wing Evangelicalism. Kurt Hill---Brooklyn, USA

“If RW will not act (and he won't), then conservatives will act unilaterally. They will unofficially divide the AC by means of unofficial organizations. They will set up parallel power centers.” carl
Yes, and thus provide us on the left with the excuse to do likewise. So far TEC has avoided forming a public “faction” in the Anglican Communion mirroring that of the border crossing conservatives. This may change very soon. There may not be all that many liberals or moderates in Nigeria, et. al. but there is no reason why what there are cannot be organized against their mis-leadership.

“I am Protestant. In fact, I am a Calvinist, which puts me about as far from Anglo-Catholicism as one can get.”--Carl
Indeed, Carl, you are particularly far from the American High Church brand of Catholicism which has always been in conflict with Calvinism (since at least 1620, anyway). You are also far from American Low Church Latitudinarianism as well, which is historically our other defining element.
In any event, Happy Thanksgiving to all (including all the Calvinists/Pilgrims out there!)

“We love our Anglo-Catholics and we want them to stay. They are an essential part of who we are and they have gifts we can learn from.”-- Pageantmaster
Anglo Catholics are one thing. I’m an Anglo Catholic. Anglo PAPALISTS are something else entirely. Fortunately here in America, the latter are few, and the former are generally liberal.

Look on the bright side--–maybe you can clean out the Anglo Papalists once and for all from the CofE. Although I’m an Anglo Catholic Episcopalian, most of us American High Churchmen/women don’t have much time for the type of Anglo Papalism that is so present in the Church of England. This particular school of thought has not been very popular in TEC since the Rev. Paul Wattson took the Franciscan Friars of the Atonement to Rome in 1907. Our anti-Roman, anti-authoritarian attitude no doubt also reflects the native American High Church tradition, and the fact that the Catholic Revival began here about 1783, rather than 1833 as in England. In fact, our American revival undoubtedly influenced the one in the UK (eg, Bishop JH Hobart’s visit to England in the 1820s, for example.) Kurt Hill, Brooklyn, NY |
