I do not mean this argumentatively, but it is real curiosity.
Do you have any indication if the conservative opponents in the Anglican movement who are resisting the retreat from orthodoxy are closer to the old calvinist wing of anglicanism?

The local PCUSA church in Sterling, where my college is located, had a meeting last night on whether to leave the PCUSA. I heard the majority are in favor of leaving the church and joining a more conservative Presby denomination. I have not heard what has happened.
If they don't stay, it will be an Earthquake because my college is PCUSA and that means there will not be any PCUSA church in town! That will be huge and could trickle down to the college affiliation.
If they do stay, it could mean a lot of new members in my RP church.

"So there is a danger that the Church does drift towards an increasingly conservative position."
You know something is changing for the better when a conservative shift is considered dangerous.
