An interesting 1866 polemic by C.H. Spurgeon with the intent of performing theological judo on the Oxford Movement.

Excellent point!

I wonder how many here who seem so intent on bashing Catholics that they will insult the Mother of God realize that this "manifesto" was as much an assault on Anglicans as it was on Roman Catholics.

Perhaps someone might explain how it is that Drs. Spurgeon or Pusey is anymore qualified to interpret Scripture than the Catholic Church.

Oh, that's an easy one. They're not Catholic!
