this author wants to turn houses of God into empty meaningless secular whorehouses of the world

Honestly, I love the Anglicans here, but the Church of England is at this point a cluster of ecumenical meeting houses. They have basically flopped on every major belief in the last couple of decades.

For goodness sake, there's more practicing Catholics in England than there are Anglicans. Catholicism was only recently legalized. Instead of the CoE handing "their" (the churches that the English nobility took from the Catholics during the deformation) churches to the atheists, just give them to the Roman Catholics and Eastern Orthodox.

I love the Anglicans on this board, though.

Oh, I'm a Catholic too

I just don't want *any* church turned into a secular meetinghouse

(also I have the feeling that when the author said "churches" they probably mean all denomination churches)

>The familiar litany of declining Anglican worship continues, with Sunday regulars down almost a third since 2000 and hovering at 750,000. This is less than 2% of the population. England has slightly more active Catholics, but Catholics and nonconformists too are declining, with Christian worshippers overall likely to be overtaken by Muslim ones within a generation. The parish mosque will be more used than the parish church.

>this author wants to turn [Anglican churches] into empty meaningless secular whorehouses of the world

>Implying they haven't been exactly this since the Reformation

When the Church of Divorce decided that worldly politics was more important the the Kingdom of God, this is exactly the kind of thing they opened themselves up to, and they absolutely deserve it. When you make the church subject to the state, you leave it to its mercy. I just hope that they repented of their errors before they died.
