    So appropriate to the whole "fishers of men" trope.

      It always makes me think of Father Patrick, the Irish Priest who always managed to inject his disdain of "The ANGLISH" into his sermon.
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        Episcopal Church, actually. We haven't been that controversial but there have been disagreements between us and the Church of England. As can be said for every other denomination in Christendom.

          "Episcopal Church" Noted. As to the rest - there's a lot of head shaking with regard to Canterbury too.
          But now that you mention it - there seem to be two "Episcopal Churches" forming up in America. One faction more or less adherent to Canterbury, and the other to Archbisop wossisname. Is that impression correct?

            There's the Episcopal Church and the Anglican Church of the United States. Neither have Archbishops, that would be the Catholic Church. We have Bishops and a Presiding Bishop (or primate) Michael Curry.

              Just checked the background, too much confusion to sift through for me... Spong's lot. Ordinary Episcopalians, Traditional Anglican with leanings to Catholic ... I don't need to know all this stuff.

                I think you somewhat misunderstand his question here. He's not saying that you have archbishops, but that branches in the US tend to be adherent to certain archbishops (one of which is Canterbury) - not sure how many archbishops the Anglican Communion contains as a whole.

                      Believe it or not, my son wanted to do this as part of his curriculum, so we did a little hunting. I had kept the list. He ultimately decided not to do it, but the list remains. The last one is NOT from the list. I was poking around a bit to see if any of these were no longer active and came across it.

                            I think I know how you feel, growing up Baptist 45 minutes from Westboro Baptist Church. (Though in that case, it's orthopraxy, not orthodoxy at issue.)

                              I spent 5 years in an Anglican Boarding School with daily Holy Communion and I'm fully aware of the High Church/Low Church dichotomy within the Anglican Communion. But the Low Church (Evangelical) wing is very much in the minority worldwide.

                                The Church of England (in the UK) has two archbishops...Canterbury and York..and a regional bishop in every diocese which owes allegiance to either of the two archbishops. This is the model for the Anglican Communion worldwide, including the Episcopal Church, except that in the US the senior bishop is known as the Presiding Bishop not Archbishop, but it's essentially the same role.
