by Michael Jensen for Sydney Anglicans Hat tip: StandFirm Just this past term I have had the great pleasure of co-teaching – with Professor Ashley Null, the renowned Cranmer scholar – a MA unit offered here at Moore College entitled ‘Anglican Identity’. In it we made careful study of the development of the English reformation and the [...]

Anglican Samizdat raises some pertinent issues about the recent bid by the Church to open the gates to dissatisfied Anglo-Catholics: For the Anglicans who accept what the charitable view as a more than generous offer and the cynical as opportunistic poaching, I wonder how they will feel when the Pope acts – and he or his successor will – on something they don’t agree with. Presumably...

Instant interview with Monsignor William Stetson: Mgr. William Stetson is the Secretary of the Pastoral Provision. The Pastoral Provision is the structure provided by Pope John Paul II in 1980 to enable married former Episcopal Priests to be ordained as Catholic priests. The Pastoral Provision also empowers the establishment of personal parishes which use the Anglican Use liturgy. A 'personal parish'...

It's perhaps a small matter, and someone more qualified than I is bound to mention it sooner or later, but why is a Roman Catholic priest who has converted to Anglicanism denied re-entry to Mother's bosom, while one who denies that 6,000,000 Jews died in in the Holocaust is welcomed home after a short period of exile?

In a post on the latest publication of detail about the Personal Ordinariate, or Anglican enclave within the Roman church, Cranmer writes some sensible words to keep us in the middle of the via media: "And Cranmer finds it bizarre that there are some who are positively wetting themselves with infantile exuberance over the supposed creation of an Anglican branch of the Catholic Church: in case...

Marvellous development. Tremendous day. Truly historic, momentous and extraordinarily generous. As Pope Benedict XVI issued his ‘Apostolic Constitution’ setting out the terms by which disaffected Anglicans are invited to cross the Tiber and join his church, in a spirit of ecclesial benevolence and with all the generosity of ecumenical reciprocity, the Archbishop of Canterbury has invited...

Great article from Libby Purvesat over at the Times, introduced by Theo Hobson from the Spectator:- Thank God for Libby The key sentence is this: “faith and power are not good bedfellows, and I for one am always glad to see religion kicked out of bed by a secular state.” The point is that no practically no other [...]

What a Knob! The erection of Personal Ordinariates is the means by which Anglican men who are rumoured to be ordained can be confirmed and ordained as Roman Catholics inside a lookalike Anglican shell. These Anglican types can continue to be as Anglican types, though many now appear within Anglicanism to be Roman types, as the ecclesiastical reporter to the world and Bishop of Sherborne Graham Kings...

According to its own doctrinal standards and history, the Church of England’s true nature is that of a Protestant, Reformed, Evangelical and catholic (in other words, universal) church. Orthodox Anglicanism is therefore defined by reference to these characteristics only, which are set out in the Thirty-nine Articles and the Church of England’s submission to the [...]

The full details of the new Apostolic Constitution have been released. Most of it is what people have expected, but there are places such as when it describes the role of priest functioning as bishops in all but name that are surprising in how far they go.

The detailed provisions and norms of the Apostolic Constitution were published on the Vatican Website at 11 a.m. this morning. Links here http://www.vatican.va/latest/latest_en.htm It seems on a first reading very positive indeed in terms both of the possibility of preserving a large element of Anglican patrimony and in its description of the powers and responsibilities of the future ordinaries themselves....

Ecclesiastical bibs and bobs An Eastern Curé d’Ars, a little-known priest of the Melkite Greek Catholic Church. As you can see from the painting they’re the most traditional/least self-latinised of their bigger churches. (The tiny Russian Catholic Church is the same way.) Arguably extra-liturgical devotion to the Blessed Sacrament is a latinisation but of course there’s no...
