The Anglican Communion should be replaced by a looser club. Let’s hope the Catholic Church doesn’t go the same way

More…
 
Even looser than what now exists. Sort of like being friends on Facebook, maybe.
🙂 I thought “club” a strange choice of words. As though it is not a religious community.

The degree of community is the issue to be decided. Will it be a sharing of communion, as in being in communion, or more like this forum is a community. Or like folks who share Christmas card lists, and occasionally meet for tea. How unequally yoked are those folk?
 
Really just a recognition of reality. It will be interesting if the GAFCON Primates even show up. They are the ones who hold all the cards at this point. It’s a hard thing for some to accept, but the center of the Anglican world is Africa, not Canterbury.

That is true. True Anglicanism still survives in Africa.

Thanks for the clarification.
