Anglican Lite

Well, it seems the drive to establish a new “Anglican” church in the U.S., and perhaps world-wide, is well on its way.
From the U.K. Telegraph:

Anglican coalition to force through breakaway

I titled the post “Anglican Lite” because while they may retain some of the trappings of Anglicanism (i.e. the 1662 BCP, 39 Articles, etc.), they will and have jettison(ed) the ethos and theological perspective that defines historical Anglicanism – comprehensiveness, methods for approaching theology and Biblical exegesis and hermeneutics, Reformed-Catholicism, Scripture-Tradition-Reason, etc.
This new church, which will now compete with the Anglican Mission in America (Rwandian) and the Convocation of North American Anglicans (Nigerian), will be yet another quasi-Anglican entity and part of the splintered “Anglican Continuum.”
Once division happens, it doesn’t end. We see this in Protestantism and as much as we have tried to avoid it in Anglicanism (which is a result of its own separation from Rome, although for very different circumstances), we see the reality. I believe there needed to be a reformation within Roman Catholicism (with Luther attempted, until he was excommunicated). The Continental reformers went too far, I think. The English Reformers were more subtle and right, IMHO.
What will be, will be. The minds of men are made up. Their heart’s are set. Their egos gloriously cajoled. The rightness of their cause wondrously firm. God’s blessing triumphantly expected. Lord have mercy on our arrogance and pride.
