Baptist Turning Anglican?

[JLR1300]

I like lots of what I read in the 39 articles of the church of England. However, when I have talked to actual Episcopalians (that's what the church of England became in America) I find that they don't take the 39 articles seriously at all. They are so liberal they don't seem to believe much of anything. So all I am saying is that even if you read their creeds, the actual people are nowadays so liberal that they don't really take their own doctrine serioulsly. But regarding the Baptism question, take Deacon Dean's suggestion and read the Carroll article.

Exactly.

That is why I left the Anglican church and refused to be authorized as a layreader by the Bishop.

I have no disrespect for anyone else's religion but the fact that scripture is thought of equally to tradition to me is a turn off. Also, the style of worship is much different and there is no room for the spirit to move In their congregations.

I'm a baptist sort of in theology but am considering Roman Catholicism...I struggle with baptismal regeneration as well

I think I'll attend an Anglican Church with my grams this Sunday.

What do you struggle with and why RC and not Lutheran?
