    continuing churches

    Some of the continuing Anglican denominations are quite 'low' church. Here in England the Free Church of England Evangelical Connexion is one such as is the Church of England ( Continuing).

    theory of atonement

    It's the theories that cause most trouble. Sharing a meal, that's far more conducive to harmony. :)

    Great article! "Duck Dynasty star gets bad rap on alleged 'racist' remarks"

    We watched Duck Dynasty here ( we live in England) for the first time tonight. What a delightful show and how nice to see that entire family at prayer and then singing a Carol at the end of the programme. Those seem to be fine people.

    Clarification

    We're a broad church with room for all sorts and conditions. Certainly here in England there's likely to be a Church of England congregation within easy commuting distance with a worship style to suit most liturgical tastes from low to high and all 'stations' in between.

    Is there a RCIA equivelant for the Anglican Church?

    Have a go.... The Prayer Book Society Best not to rush it. Factor in some expectant listening 'gaps' . Sometimes the old ways are the good ways. Enjoy. :)

    Reinstate Prayers for the Dead?

    We're most of us Anglicans on here presumably. The thread 'tone' isn't perhaps, in parts; but we are. Apologies if any of my own contributions have caused offence. Such was unintentional howsoever unforgiveable. Some Anglicans pray for the dead as per my link to one of those CofE groups that do...

    Calvinism in the Anglican Communion

    That is by far and the best approach. If someone wishes to be amongst folks comfortable with a single interpretation on dogmatics then one of the many 'continuing' causes would perhaps be a happier home church for them. Birds of a feather like to flock together. In our parish churches here...

    Reinstate Prayers for the Dead?

    My bad. I'd, obviously mistakenly; thought that this was an Anglican thread. I'm done here. :)

    Reinstate Prayers for the Dead?

    From the GoAS site. "Long ago the Holy Ghost said: It is a holy and wholesome thing to pray for the dead, that they may be loosed from their sins. (II Macab. 12 : 46). Our Lord shed tears in seeing the tomb of Lazarus, and the Church, well acquainted with the feelings of her Divine Founder...

    Reinstate Prayers for the Dead?

    I can't see any harm in praying for the dead. Those Guild people say they are simply continuing an old practice that fell out of use in the Anglican church. Walsingham Anglican Shrine is certainly one expression of Anglicanism. Others are available and birds of a feather do tend to flock...

    Not sure if this info has been posted already but we do have The Guild of All Souls here. Walsingham Chantry Chapel They have a lovely little chapel in Walsingham Anglican Shrine gardens. There's a Chantry Priest in residence there.

    CofE Women Bishops may be approved soon

    Dissenters was a poor choice for sure. The pros and the antis on the consecration of women bishops are co- equally Anglican as someone pointed out. We've muddled along with 'flying Bishops' and separate ordinations and we'll likely continue to muddle along once we have women Bishops.

    Reformed Anglicans - a genuine question.

    I know what you mean. There are some deep theologians on that site. I'm no expert but always thought that the Articles tended towards a Reformed viewpoint as that was the fashion back in the days when the Articles were formulated. We barely looked at them when I read for orders. They came up...
