Whenever there is talk on Anglo-Catholicism Vs Evangelicalism, you often hear or read that one emphasises the Catholic nature of the Anglican church and the other emphasises the Protestant nature, but can (or are) Anglo-Catholics still considered Protestants? Do AC's see themselves as Protestant...

Hi all, I'm not Orthodox, but in my experience on this site (it's been some years since I've been on) I feel that the Orthodox really know their stuff. So my question is about men covering their heads while they pray. I know that St Paul elaborates on this and says that men who cover whilst...

Hi everybody, so today has been a rather sad day for my family. We have found out that my uncle (dads younger brother) has committed suicide and his wife also is in hospital after an overdose. We don't know what the circumstances behind any of this were. We found out that my uncle has been...

Hi guys, So this is a bit of a two part question. Being raised in the Roman Church, we were always made aware that the Romans had valid orders and the real presence of Christ in the eucharist (as well as the Orthodox), and that Anglicans do not have either. This kind of ingraining into RC's...

Video: Archbishop’s sermon praising Old Rite goes viral | CatholicHerald.co.uk “Maybe the experience of these young people growing up with the Ordinary Form did not carry with it the beauty, reverence, prayerfulness, sense of mystery and transcendence, or wonder and awe that the Traditional...

It's occurred to me for a while now that Catholics are widely known for their use of incense, in fact it's been used by many as a reason why they don't like Catholic services, however, whenever I have been to mass, incense is never used. The only time i've noticed it is used is during Holy Week...

Hi guys, I won't go into much detail on this, but it's been weighing on my mind. I recently received the sacrament of reconciliation, but i'm having trouble forgiving myself. I know that God has more than likely forgiven me, but i'm not sure how to forgive myself for the things i've done...

Hi everybody, This is quite a tough thing for me to ask for. It has been hard enough coming to terms with the reality that since about the age of 12/13 I have been watching inappropriate content online. I didn't realise that watching it and masturbating to it had become an addiction until recently when I saw...

So, I finally came to a conclusion that Christianity was what I really believed in after having questioned the faith and looked to Judaism. I heard many compelling arguments on each side but in the end I felt the Christian arguments were the most convincing! Anyway, to my main topic. I went to...

Hi guys, I was just wondering if anybody could help me a little. My problem is this: I grew up in a Christian family (Catholic) however I was really the only one that took it seriously. All I relied on when I was younger was Catholic School to get my religious education. I have been a...

I have been looking into the Reformed Churches and I was just wondering, what Bible do Reformed Christians use and why? I know some Churches such as the Catholic and Anglican Churches have a list of approved Bibles so I was just wondering if the Reformed Church adhered to a specific kind of...
