Traditional Anglican ping, continued in memory of its founder Arlin Adams.

FReepmail sionnsar if you want on or off this moderately high-volume ping list (typically 3-9 pings/day).
This list is pinged by sionnsar and newheart.

1: Roman Catholic (100%)
2: Anglican/Episcopal/Church of England (68%)
3: Eastern Orthodox (65%)
4: Lutheran (60%)
5: Presbyterian/Reformed (48%)

11: Anabaptist (Mennonite/Quaker etc.) (15%)
12: Baptist (non-Calvinistic)/Plymouth Brethren/Fundamentalist (9%)
13: Seventh-Day Adventist (4%)

The Episcopalian/Anglican markers tend towards the "low" or evangelical end of the church. Most "high" Anglicans, for example, believe in the Real Presence, but hardly anybody in the "middle" or "low" church does.

There are of course certain biases built into such quizzes -- especially when Anglicans are involved. Given comments I'd seen earlier I was surprised to achieve 100%, but perhaps my "certainty" scores affected things. I don't know -- but still it picked up on certain things I'd been considering for a while...

Well, I'm surprised.

1: Roman Catholic (100%)
2: Eastern Orthodox (94%)
3: Presbyterian/Reformed (92%)
4: Lutheran (90%)
5: Anglican/Episcopal/Church of England (88%)
6: Congregational/United Church of Christ (71%)
7: Baptist (Reformed/Particular/Calvinistic) (51%)
8: Church of Christ/Campbellite (24%)
9: Seventh-Day Adventist (24%)
10: Methodist/Wesleyan/Nazarene (22%)
11: Baptist (non-Calvinistic)/Plymouth Brethren/Fundamentalist (20%)
12: Pentecostal/Charismatic/Assemblies of God (5%)
13: Anabaptist (Mennonite/Quaker etc.) (0%)

I guess I really have left the Episcopal Church. :D

And I'm currently attending a Baptist church, which is giving me about half of what I want, so the 51% figure is probably pretty accurate.

Well, for many years one of the only distinctive things about Anglican/Episcopalians was that you couldn't pin them down on much of anything . . . ;-)

The radical/heterodox wing has now been "pinned down" on the issues of the authority of Scripture and Tradition, and sexuality.

I think by so doing they have managed to upset the entire apple cart. The many diverse elements in ECUSA only managed to hang together by politely allowing the other elements to follow their own beliefs. The radicals have stopped doing that, and it may destroy the entire church.

Get a copy of the Catechism and give it a read. You may be still more surprised. I was.

enter the Table of Contents of the Catechism of the Catholic Church here
The Second Edition English Translation of the Catechism of the Catholic Church includes the corrections promulgated by Pope John Paul II on 8 September 1997. These corrections to the English text of the Catechism of the Catholic Church were made to harmonize it with the official Latin text promulgated by Pope John Paul II on the same date. For details of the corrections, see the editio typica modifications to the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
 
 

Catechism of the Catholic Church is available online!

Perhaps the 1/3 of the CofE we are not is the radical wing, since we are both around 50% Low Church (Presby as a substitute), and 100% Anglo-Catholic.

Well this is pretty dang interesting, considering I don't have a clue what an anabaptist is:

1: Anabaptist (Mennonite/Quaker etc.) (100%)
2: Baptist (non-Calvinistic)/Plymouth Brethren/Fundamentalist (100%)
3: Congregational/United Church of Christ (87%)
4: Pentecostal/Charismatic/Assemblies of God (83%)
5: Methodist/Wesleyan/Nazarene (76%)
6: Baptist (Reformed/Particular/Calvinistic) (68%)
7: Presbyterian/Reformed (65%)
8: Eastern Orthodox (58%)
9: Anglican/Episcopal/Church of England (57%)
10: Church of Christ/Campbellite (53%)
11: Seventh-Day Adventist (53%)
12: Lutheran (44%)
13: Roman Catholic (35%)

I'm not sure I agree with their assessment. Okay, a lot of it I do....

Looking at your scores, perhaps you need to look for a PCA or OPC church or perhaps United Reformed or RCUS.
