No I don't think so. This is an old, old argument and I have no wish to see it reignited, not while the secularists laugh and the muslims wait in the wings. The Church (that is the Church universal) cannot afford this kind of squabbling right now. Certainly not in Britain.

As to the established Church of England, well I may be English but I'm also a good Baptist, and a Baptist by conviction at that. I don't think we should have a State religion. I don't think any country should. The CofE will continue beyond this. The anglo-catholic wing is a relatively small and uninfluential part and they are quite ineffective at spreading the gospel anyway. The Catholics can have them for all the good it will do. They can fool themselves with "apostolic successions" too for all I care.

Yes, it does seem faintly ridiculous to be discussing medieval problems while The Friendly Sons of Muhammed are over running the place.
