/christian/ - Christian Discussion and Fellowship

So Anglicans are just trying to figure out why they exist since their sect was founded by the horny instead of by any theological reasons.They're constantly trying to distinguish themselves from both protestantism and traditional Christianity (especially Catholicism), so different theological movements have been encouraged and suppressed to attain that. In practice it just ends up being general high-church Protestantism but without a point. You see a lot of homos that think the Catholic church is too mean end up there, some people with mostly traditional Christian beliefs that just reject the pope too (too retarded to look to Orthodoxy). Sometimes it looks like so called 'old / independent catholicism'. You might see some high-church inclined protestants that don't like Lutheran or Calvinist particulars. If the only protestant conviction a man has is sola scriptora, and they aren't even too radical about that, they might end up here. They are probably the most interesting protestants to me because they often claim to adhere to apostolic tradition and hold apostolic succession (really the things that separate protestants from the rest), but it is held as an auxiliary source of authority with scripture really being primary for Anglicans. Also, i don't think any traditional Christian church recognizes their line of succession. You have a range from fairly low-church and homo-loving, women-'ordaining' Anglicans to the anglo-catholics, some of which have even looked for union with rome in recent decades. Some of them have attained it. There is the 'personal ordinariates' in the Catholic Church. Basically very large dioceses that consist of anglican converts and hold certain anglican pratices, included a third anclican use form of the latin rite mass. Anglo-catholicism is part of the 'continuing anglican' movement. These are those more 'conservative' Anglicans that find themselves removed from communion with the archbishop of Canterbury.

What I do know is the bcp is great to use for daily devotion. So I thank their tradition for that. C.S Lewis was an Anglican, and his apologetics are great.

Anglcanism is going extinct lmao cope

The UK is 72% Atheist. Such a degenerate country. winnie the pooh the UK.

Anglican Church was founded by a man who wanted to divorce his wives so he could have a legitimate heir, and the Church said no.

So, he split from the church, stole church property, looted Church coffers, and allowed his soldiers to rape and murder nuns and priests.

It was born in the desire for mortal sin, and was bathed in the blood of martyrs.

Now the head of the Church is claiming she's some sort of Moslem Leader as well.
