These are Anglicans ... so their “orders” are invalid anyway ...

Indeed - but these are the model that "Womenpriests" look to.

I had forgotten that claim that the "ordination" of women would create a tidal wave of Anglicans returning to the fold.

More people go to church in Birmingham, AL on a Sunday than in all of England.

Let's pretend I accept your premise for a moment. What model did these women look to?

Harsh words, brothers. From what I have learned about the apostolic source of the bishop who conferred my orders upon me, I am persuaded that they are in fact quite apostolic and authentically catholic. Shall we dispute further?

Are you sure? Wikipedia gives the population of Birmingham, AL, as a tad bit over 200,000 - both the C.ofE. and the R.C.C. get within spitting distance either way of a million people each Sunday...which is ten times the whole population.
