GKC, why are you not catholic? is it because you don’t think it is nessisary for unity in the church or do you hope that one day the catholic church becomes “anglican” and that the anglican church is the one true church like many orthodox christians do?

the way i see it, either rome is right, or we are all wrong and it doesn’t matter.

Greetings, Oat Soda, old friend,

That’s a good setup. I am a Catholic, but not a Roman Catholic. And so are the Orthodox, and the Old Catholics/PNCCs (who have retained the basic doctrines such as a male priesthood, etc, and maybe a few odds and ends I can’t remember. That’s one of the basic beliefs of your average Anglo-Catholic. Heaven knows (I think), Anglicanism is not the one true church. Catholicism is. That’s all of us, in apostolic succession, with valid orders and sacraments. (Yes, of course I’m familiar with Apostolicae Curae, see quote above). What you suggest the Orthodox think (and I know what you mean) is what I think Rome thinks. Anglicans (my sort, anyway) think it’s all of us. I think Rome is far more often right than otherwise. And so we pray for Benedict, and Alexi, and Bartholomew. And last week, for Sts Thomas More and Thomas of Canterbury. Catholics all.

No mention of Rowan, lately.

Please, please, please be very wary of this group. Its leader, Robert Morse, needs careful background investigation. Check on what he really believes about divorce and abortion.
He once sacked a priest over the phone when he found out that the priest was interested in the groups that were trying to make contact with Rome.
I cannot emphasise enough to be VERY CAREFUL about this man.

If you mean me personally, I’m very familiar with ++Morse.

I mean you and anyone else. There is a lot I could say about Robert Morse, but what disappoints me most is that his group, (I don’t like calling it a Church), has grown to 70 parishes, or so the website claims.
I respect a number of the ex-Episcopal groups in their aims to find the truth, but I do not respect or trust Morse. Anyone who considers themselves Catholic in faith should avoid Morse completely.

Certainly, anyone interested seriously in Traditional Anglicanism (and I can’t imagine that anyone here might be) should check out all aspects of any jurisdiction that interests them, be it ++Morse’s, ++Falk’s , ++John Charles, or another.

Current APCK size is closer to 50+ parishes; the website is out of date.
