Read, mark, & inwardly digest this elegant bombshell.  As much as I'd like to hear your thoughts on the matters presented, especially if you are remaining with a TEC affiliated parish, I'm leaving comments off this one.  Discuss amongst yourselves.

The question now arises, which logic will prevail. It is quite possible that the logic of fragmentation will prevail and people will go their own way. Or it may be that the Anglicans will see their way to the Catholic Church, to God's will as expressed in Christ's highly prescient prayer for the unity of Christians across the ages and throughout the world.

'Anglicans to their credit have never claimed to be the one, true Church.' He noted that successive Lambeth Conferences had accepted that Anglicanism stands ready to disappear in the cause of Catholic unity, 'that is, it [Anglicanism] is not an end to itself but a means towards the greater Catholicism which is  God's will.'
