| | The Anglican Communion is a world-wide organization of Anglican Churches. | | | There is no single "Anglican Church"; it is better to speak of the Anglican Communion, which consists of national churches in communion with the Church of England. | | | The ultimate head of any Anglican church is believed to be Jesus, with his representative taken to be the Primate, head of the church at the national level; but Anglican primates acknowledge the leadership of the Archbishop of Canterbury as primus inter pares, or "first among equals". |

| | Modern Magi Journey for Peace (by Daoud Kuttab) - Media Monitors Network |
| | The biblical story of the Magi, coming from the East, to visit the baby Jesus in Bethlehem, as recorded in the Gospel of Matthew, is taught in every Christian Sunday school in the West. | | | Thousands are expected to join the modern magi walking from Beit Sahur to Bethlehem's Manger Square, thus retracing the journey of the shepherds who heeded the call of the angels, as recorded in the Gospel of Luke, to come and visit the newborn child lying in a manger. | | | Since the Magi of old came to visit the baby Jesus and presented him with gifts, the new magi also wanted to give gifts to the people of the region. |

| | Boston.com / News / Local / N.H. / Episcopal conservatives disappointed in Anglican report on gay bishop |
| | An Anglican panel studying the consecration of an openly gay bishop in the U.S. Episcopal Church failed to give American conservatives what they sought: punishment for church leaders and quick recognition for the network of dissenting congregations. | | | The two groups represent traditional Episcopalians who have formed a network of dissenting congregations in a challenge to U.S. church leaders. | | | However, some liberal Episcopalians said the report by the 17-member Anglican commission could eventually put the American church in the difficult position of having to choose between ordaining gays and remaining in the Anglican Communion. |

| | Druid: Information From Answers.com |
| | Druids used not only to take the part that modern priests would, but were often the philosophers, scientists, lore-masters, teachers, judges and counsellors to the kings. | | | The Druids' roles were then assumed by the bishop and the abbot, who were usually not the same individual, however, and might find themselves in direct competition. | | | In these stories Druids usually act as advisers to kings and often have the ability to foretell the future (Bec mac Dé, for example, predicted the death of Diarmaid mac Cearbhaill more accurately than three Christian saints), but there is little reference to their religious function. |

| | REPORT OF A REGIONAL CONSULTATION OF THE NETWORK FOR INTER FAITH CONCERNS IN THE ANGLICAN COMMUNION |
| | Their example also has an added significance for the churches of the Anglican Communion through the presence of Indian diaspora communities in many places overseas: this is a country which cannot be seen in isolation from other parts of the world. | | | Alongside relations between Christians and Muslims, we affirm that Christian-Hindu relations should be taken seriously by the Communion, and we also recognise the need to devote attention to dialogue with Buddhists and with other religious traditions with their roots in India. | | | The Indian Christian Churches, including the Church of North India and the Church of South India, have taken this challenge seriously, both in their evangelism and in their dialogue, and we have learnt much from the very varied ways in which Indian Christians are engaging with their context. |

| | We also re-affirm the resolutions made by the bishops of the Anglican Communion gathered at the Lambeth Conference in 1998 on issues of human sexuality as having moral force and commanding the respect of the Communion as its present position on these issues. | | | Whilst we recognise the juridical autonomy of each province in our Communion, the mutual interdependence of the provinces means that none has authority unilaterally to substitute an alternative teaching as if it were the teaching of the entire Anglican Communion. | | | In this case, the ministry of this one bishop will not be recognised by most of the Anglican world, and many provinces are likely to consider themselves to be out of Communion with the Episcopal Church (USA). |
