Sionnsar, I know this subject is really dear to you, so I know what I may say might hurt, but what on earth has gone so freaking wrong with the Anglican church? Is there an alternative you would consider?

If my church (a nondenominational church) had any of these problems, I would immediately leave and attend a church that reported to God.

I could not allow, on behalf of God, idiots to lead a flock of which I was a part.

Assuming that what's gone wrong with the North American (or even including New Zealand and much of Cof E) part of the church is going wrong with the totality of Anglicanism would be a mistake. The vast majority of world-wide Anglicanism remains quite solid where it stands.

The Episcopal church is not the Anglican church; it's a small corner -- for all it is the dominant one where I (and you?) live.

I have found my alternative: the faith that produced the King James Bible, etc., lives on in my Anglican province. (Arrgh -- I dislike this keyboard...)
