You see, we Catholics wouldn’t have called that a communion.😉

There was a time when the CoE, in essence, was Anglicanism. And while there was a range of doctrinal opinion, under an umbrella of mere Christianity, it was not anarchy. This, not incidentally, was in the Empire period. But the Empire ended,spinning off independent Dominions, then countries, and auto-cephelous Churches spun out in turn. This is the Commonwealth period. And it does not march in step.

Whether the Commonwealth (nation-states, or Churches) has any vitality or meaning is a question. Time will tell.

Maybe.

Your comments are so out of sync with the Roman Catholic Church, in my opinion.

Show me, my friend. Which of my comments are out of sync with the Catholic Church (not ‘Roman’ Catholic Church)? In your opinion.

BTW, my comments were in reply to GKC, not to the CCC.

Etc., etc., etc. That’s the Anglican string. There is also the Calvinist string and, not so bad, the Luther string, but ‘sola scriptura’ did a lot of damage. I can’t count the number of times I have read, “Ah don need no pope t’tell me what the bahble says! Ah kin read it fo my seff!!”

Life goes on.

Everyone seems at their happiest when predicting disaster for their co-religionists.

You can start with reading the quote and link below. Not sure if you mean to be tactless.

Well, thanks for inserting your thoughts into the thread.

Perhaps you might want to upgrade your reading material. But that’s not my call.
