Orthodoxy looks ever the better the more I hear from Pharisee Catholics. The Orthodox at least do not exalt themselves.
Let's get back to the article as well.
Again and again, I find myself coming back to Bishop Cosin’s admonition that Anglicanism is to be “protestant and reformed according to the principles of the ancient Catholic Church.”
Is the use of the word "ancient" compatible with stating, "Indeed, it may be preceded by Morning Prayer, but any casual observer of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer...."? 1662 is ancient?

I never claimed to be holy, and I never claimed to be holier than anyone else. I am, however, reasonable enough to realize that an Anglican is a Protestant, and not a Catholic.
"Orthodoxy looks ever the better the more I hear from Pharisee Catholics. The Orthodox at least do not exalt themselves."
They too aren't Protestant. They also will tell you that you are. I encourage you to become Orthodox (or Catholic). At least if you were Orthodox you would receive valid sacraments. Anglicans have no priesthood, no bishops, no actual Eucharist, no valid confirmation, etc. At least if you became Orthodox you would have those things.
Also, the mere fact that you recognize that Orthodoxy looks better and better means you know something is missing from Anglicanism. Case closed. Thanks for proving my point.
