Most of it is liberal. Those parishes or dioceses which are not either have sought or are in the process of seeking alternative episcopal oversight from more conservative provinces.

The Episcapostate...sorry...Episcopal Church, the 'fallen branch' of the Anglican Communion in the USA.

Sorry to hear that.

Oooh, lots! For a start, we don't have Papal Supremacy or indeed any other supremacy (some acknowledge the Pope as Patriarch of the West but only as equal to the other Four (Five if you count Moscow) of the Orthodoxen); this of course has weaknesses as well as strengths, chief of which is that...

Erm...yes it does. Go re-read Phil 2:6-12. I repeat: you are being too binary about this and won't reconcile kenosis and hypostasis as long as you continue to do this. Quit trying to over-define something which has at least an element of divine mystery about it or else you'll end up like the...

Montevideo is in Uruguay so I guess Spanish is his first language. Let's cut him a bit of slack at least for that.

What are you asking, exactly?

Have you read any N T Wright?

Herewith. Enjoy!

Nope. Read the 39 Articles...

You're still being too binary in your thinking, too Western. Jesus can be fully God, and yet self-limit the Divine manner of His existence as fully Man, thus whilst He remained, for example, omniscient as to His Divine Nature, He chose to not operate with that faculty during His Incarnation.

It's all up to the Big Cheese. He is Love, but Paul He loves more than others.

Re the OP question: it's a 'both/ and' not 'either/ or' answer ie: Jesus did empty Himself (kenosis; per Phil. 2:7) but remained 100% God (per Phil 2:6). See also Nicaea I, Chalcedon Councils.

DT, nice one! And this means of course that God only loves Paul; I'm afraid that He doesn't really like the rest of us. The whole crucifixion thing was a bit of a bummer, I guess; you know, the whole dying thing just to save one guy, but hey! That's life...

Indeed!:smilewinkgrin:

So definitely not a Christian, but a believer in 'Christian culture', whatever that means (all too often it turns out to be protecting 'People Like Us' as opposed to 'The Other').

This is in part a backlash against the s*x abuse scandals in the Catholic Church. Understandable, perhaps, but still regrettable.

A great soldier of Christ. At a time when so much of the Anglican Communion is rightly in disrepute in the First World, he was a true beacon of light for us.

Fairy nuff. Ruby Ridge was in Idaho after all. Whilst the Unabomber was in Montana, he was scarcely right-wing, and Militia of Montana and Montana Freemen haven't been involved in any terrorist acts (although the Freemen have been involved in criminal acts). I suppose the nearest American...

Granted, but what has that got to do with anything? I was simply trying to give one or two Americo-centric comparative examples, not trying to score points in a bizarre "Who has the most mass-murderers competition"; clearly, Europeans win hands down in such a contest!
