I'm assuming he's part of the 'MGTOW' movement? It's trash, because it's mostly composed of old, divorced and bitter men that married hoes who acted like hoes.

Don't marry a hoe that you find in a club or at a bar and you'll be fine. :D

>>532468

Wait we're relevant?

le divorce church aren’t apostolic, just prots

>>532477

Well the Church of Jockland definetely isn't relevant.

>>532477

>>532482

I don't mean this as a personal attack against you guys, I love the Anglicans here. :D

What I meant was that the Anglican church is doing everything it can to remain favorable and relevant in the eyes of the English society. That will be its ultimate downfall because you really can't accommodate atheists/modernists. :/

>>532489

Nah, no worries. You'd be surprised - the lefties don't like us cause we're Christian, the righties don't like us cause they're neopagan. The west is moving towards pagan Rome, creating golems of rage. Challenging.

I'm glad we're living in this age of socially mandated degeneracy.

False churches are incentivized to tip their hands.

>>532489

The CoE has managed to hold the line with gay marriage. Unfortunely a lot of Anglican churches have failed, like the Scottish one.

The reality is that the CoE giving into this would be the END of the Anglican movement. Destined for various schisms and the rest being mopped up by Rome. Troubling times indeed.

Interesting. If the CoE did reach that point, what would you guys do? Become Catholic?

I know this is what's happening in places like Sweden, for example. Their state Lutheran church has accepted all of these modern doctrines and a lot of their people are leaving for Catholicism.

>he bows to the altar

Even in your indignation you fail to be orthodox

>>532601

eh? Oh, I see. I lol a little

Yeah, okay, so I'm not one of those Anglicans. What would I know? I'm a noob. No one told me what people were doing or why.

>>532601

Forgive me brother, but I only recently returned to the church. What did he do wrong? Was he supposed to genuflect to the Tabernacle instead?

>>532616

Correct

>>532613

yeah, /pol/ and the MAGA set

>>532622

Ah, alright. I thought so, but I wasn't sure.

>>532613

I meant a schism in the CoE lad. The problem is that, unless an ACNA-like church pops up in England, we really have no home outside of the CoE. Rome is our closest fit.

>>532841

ACNA-like churches are already popping up, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Church_of_England

Plus, Gavin Ashenden (former chaplain to the Queen, who resigned over a number of issues) was consecrated in the Christian Episcopal Church, another break-way GAFCON-aligned church

>>532613

The future of (Protestant) Anglicanism is very much in GAFCON, where the Sydney Diocese takes a leading role in. I suspect you're right than conflict between Melbourne and Sydney is inevitable, but the conservative GAFCON churches have growth and demographics on their side, and the CoE/TEC/liberal Anglican churches do not

>>532588

I'm curious, which Diocese was this in? I hope you don't give up after one bad experience with one particular vicar

>>532841

>I meant a schism in the CoE lad

You mean that "as opposed to worldwide Anglicanism"? Cuz, we call it CoE down under, too, m8.

Okay, well, I getcha, but I still cannot see the CoE evangelibean and charismatics in England joining Rome, either, and a lot of them are righteously conservative.

If they build need it, an ACNAoE will come.

>>532932

Melbourne, which I already know is notoriously liberal, but I never realised how much.

And I wont, 'cuz I've attended too many based CoE in Melbourne and Sydney, but this one is closest to home, and so I just defaulted.

>>532931

Yes! I was going to mention that "Melbourne" will ultimately lose a Lib-Con war because of simple demographics, plus, afaik, "Sydney" has shiptonnes more cash and resources at its disposal.

That said, I'd never heard of GAFCON. I knew one had to exist, tho' … Aaaaaaaaah, I see, it's Jensen's baby. That man always was a blessing to Australian Anglicanism. Good to see that they didn't manage to neuter him despite his years at the top. Unwieldy name, tho'

>>532931

>Look up FCOE churches

>none near me

REEEEEEEEE

>>533343

If there are no FCOE or solid CoE churches near you, maybe try the Prayer Book society's website to track down a more traditionalist church which uses the BCP

https://www.pbs.org.uk/churches-and-services/service-finder

>>533142

Indeed, Jensen has done a lot of great work for the Anglican Church in Australia and worldwide.

>non Christian friends laugh at me for going to an Anglican Church because they assume all of them are like what they've seen or heard about Gosford

Show them this

>>533827

St Matthias?

Well, that was my old haunt, but, sadly, I don't live in Sydney anymore.

>>537167

>>537167

Nah, I'm about 15km north of the city. Not sure how comfortable I naming the church itself though

I understand there's no fear of being doxxed, considering there's 100 people in our evening congregation alone but I just feel weird revealing personal information on a namibian basket weaving forum

Sure but ask yourself - is it profitable for body and soul?

For they are of different kin (though Ethipians are like half arab and arabs are quasi-"white"). Remember words od Prophet Tobias.

For they are of different civilisation (and Ethiopia is such congomelate of diffrent civilisation that one must pity them really).

For they are of schism.

But love is a choice and we are free to choose. But once eros always eros for it would be adultery otherwise.

Typical anglican

>>532480

Divorce wasn't allowed in Britain until the 20th century. King Henry sought an annulment on legitimate, Biblical grounds.

Anglicans are indeed apostolic.

>>544897

No, they are Monophysites.

Well, it depends. The Quinisext council (if I remember right) forbids marriage with heretics.

Nowadays it's hardly followed anymore, it really just depends of the bishop.

>>552250

in all the churches where I went, Catholics here in the UK also pray for the Queen when it's an important date. I don't think our clergy is anti-British, but it's not an easy topic to say the least…I got Anglican friends and even with our issues we get along pretty well (same with my Orthodox friends). Also, all Nations always debated on territorial gains or losses no matter their faith (see Poland and Lithuania: both Catholic Countries, yet they cannot stand one another…or Italy and Slovenia or Croatia, again Catholic Countries, or Russia and Ukraine, etc…).

>le denomination jumping man

>typical in any way

Nah, he's backflipped so many times it's hard to tell what, if anything, he's believed in

>>552250

The more legitimate and least compromised something is, the most anti-british and incompatible with the british legal and political systems it is, as well as british culture (aka Islam)

>>552272

It doesn't matter if they pray for the Queen or the clergy isn't anti-British, the Catholic Church is still incompatible with the British legal and political system and antithesis to British culture (which is firmly Anglican). Plus the Papacy itself is full of anti-British bishops and cardinals from places such as Ireland, Argentina, Spain, etc.

>>553646

What elements of british culture do you think are incompatible with Catholicism, exactly?

>>554260

Being traitorous scam?

>>554269

But that's a key component of being a Catholic.
