True true!! Very true. I was repeating what my husband and I said to each other in a conversation one time though...seemed to best describe our particular frustration. We have had many people come to our services and then not return for one reason or another...some were Episcopalians who couldnt deal with the ACC's position on Transubstantiation, and some RCCers were put off by the fact that we were not under the Roman church. And I try to explain to people how the ACC actually harkens back to a period well before St. Augustine's arrival, but I think there are too many whose understanding of western civilization does not include that part of history.
If you really hearken back to the British church of ancient times, you certainly should have dropped the filoque: the Saxon coronation rite used for Harold Godwinson included the original Creed without the Latin interpolation (really Visigothic in origin and championed by the Franks), and there is no evidence that the erroneous creed was ever confessed in Britain before the Norman Conquest.
Some of us commemorate the anniversay of the Battle of Hastings as the Feast of St. Harold, Last Orthodox King of England, and those who died with him at Hastings. (His daughter married Prince Vladimir Monomach of Kiev, and most Saxons who fled England headed for either Kiev or Constantinople, so that while we tend to cut off Western saints at about 800 on the continent, we commemorate English and Irish saints as Orthodox down until the Norman conquest.) There are even some who argue that the real Robin of Loxley should be commemorated as an Orthodox martyr.
