| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Anglicanism |
 | | By forming a catena of Anglican High Church divines of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries on one side, and a catena of certain Fathers on the other, it was hoped that a quasi-continuous chain of Catholic tradition could be made to connect the Anglican Church of their day with Catholic antiquity. | | | The members of the Church of England are professed Christians, and claim to be baptized members of the Church of Christ. | | | A number of Anglican bishops and divines in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, while bitterly opposed to Rome, and loyally Protestant, stood above the prevailing low level of churchmanship, and put forward higher and philocatholic views, in the matters of Church authority, belief, and worship. |

| | Traditions Concerning the Saints: The Anglican church accepts the existence of saints, although the process of canonization is not present in the church. | | | Traditions Concerning Sin: The Anglican church believes that a priest/bishop has the authority from God to remit sins, and allow for their members to give confession to the priest. | | | Apostolic Succession: The Anglican church has a system of bishops and archbishops, of whom they assert have authority that is similar to that of the Apostles', but make no comment concerning authenticity as the Roman Catholic church has. |

| | This is Life!: Revolutions Around the Cruciform Axis: Anglicanism Archives |
| | Historic Anglicanism has been based on the authority of Scripture, Tradition, and Reason, and the use of these authorities leads to wise, healthy, and holy Biblical Literacy (for example, in William Wilberforce's Evangelical understanding that human slavery is antithetical to God's Word as revealed in Scripture). | | | The problem with this mentality of some Anglican thinkers is that they have, alas, created a false “source” of truth, which is, actually, fallacy, counteracting the true and only one source of Truth, the Bible in the Holy Tradition of the Church. | | | Unfortunately, for Rev. Robinson and his like-minded Anglicans, this statement is a betrayal of the only One Truth, which is that of the Bible, kept and perennially taught by the Holy Tradition of the Church, led by God’s Holy Spirit. |

| | Guardian Unlimited Guardian daily comment Breaking up is hard to do |
| | Anglicans, in trying to sort out doctrinal differences among themselves, were always arguing about the precise weight that should be given to scripture, tradition, reason and culture. | | | Geographical boundaries mean less and less; congregations and churches are increasingly related by their shared affinities and agreed moral coherence. | | | Indeed, a slight loosening of the ties could help the Anglican churches. |

| | Undiluted Anglicanism |
| | Anglicanism bows before the majesty of God, cherishes His truth, presents the joy of knowing Him, encourages the beauty of holiness in its adherents through its forms of worship. | | | The fundamental compendium from which we live, work, worship and witness as Anglicans is the Book of Common Prayer (1662), and its doctrine and liturgy guide us in our thoughts concerning God and our approach to Him. | | | If Anglicanism is to present any credible alternative to the claims of other churches, it must, in my opinion, follow such a path as outlined by Rev. Salter. |

| | The Church of England |
| | From the time of the Elizabethan settlement on, the Church of England (the Anglican Church) attempted, with varying degrees of success, to consolidate its position both as a distinctive middle way between Catholicism and Puritanism and as the national religion of England. | | | The Puritan emphasis on individualism, however, made the establishment of a national Presbyterian Church during the Interregnum impossible, and the Restoration of the Monarchy under Charles II in 1660 facilitated the re-establishment of the Anglican Church, purged of Puritans, who split into various dissenting factions. | | | This process was facilitated to a considerable degree in part because many upper-class Anglicans, tired of doctrinal disputes, wanted only a rational, moderate, practical religion which would permit them to worship in peace. |

| | Anglo-Catholicism |
| | First, not all that glitters is gold: what happened in Anglicanism as Anglo-Catholicism became larger and more noticeable in church life was not the conversion of most Anglicans to Catholicism but rather a toleration of Catholic trappings and of Anglo-Catholic beliefs as opinion, not essential matters of faith. | | | This place was a part of Anglo-Catholicism, an over 150-year-old movement in Anglicanism that had set for itself the quixotic goal of undoing the Protestant ‘Reformation’ among English-speaking people and after cleaning their church of heresy, presenting it for restoration of Catholic communion. | | | One of the ironies of the movement, and one of its weaknesses, is that although it all hung on Anglicanism’s nearly unique claim among Reformation-era churches to have retained the Catholic apostolic succession of bishops, historically very few Anglican bishops have supported the movement. |

| | What is Anglicanism? |
| | Because various orthodox Anglicans want to deny the clear teaching of the Tradition on many of these points, they are not in accord with what the English Reformers thought or desired and threaten any notion of a truly Anglican identity that is not a merely lowest common denominator Christianity. | | | The question is: "Is there anything distinctive about Anglicanism, other than the fact that it in some way historically proceeded from the English Church?" If this is the only or primary definition of "Anglicanism," then Methodists, Presbyterians, and Baptists are "Anglicans" because they have certainly proceeded from the English Church. | | | The unbroken (East and West; Roman Catholic and Anglican; Evangelical and Catholic Anglican; until very recently, of course) Tradition which is not contrary to Scripture in any of these matters, equally and universally affirms all of them. |

| | In the traditional lectionary of the western church, the three Sundays before Lent are distinct from both Epiphany and Lent. | | | They are still on the official calendars of some churches in the Anglican Communion, but they have more or less disappeared from the main stream of our liturgical life outside of church-stamp collections and the still-popular hymn 'Advent tells us Christ is near.'* | | | This may work in an Orthodox liturgical context, but it is not how Anglicans and other western Christians have tended to measure out the ecclesiastical year.) A preparatory season for the Ascension or Pentecost or All Saints Day would turn the calendar into a jumbly mess in short order. |
