May I suggest that this is a topic that doesn't really concern us: what concerns each individual is his own salvation, not the salvation of others. Anglicans may do as they wish; though we may believe them misguided that does not mean we should criticise.

With love in Christ

Dear Alex,

This is an interesting reading of things, and, on the last point, nicely charitable; as an Anglican, I do feel able to express a view, of course.

When I was a young man most of my friends would have echoed the views in your first sentence; look at it now. If you think that any Chuch operating in the west can be immune to this topic, I would suggest a reading of the latest edition of Bishop Kallistos; The Orthodox Church.
