Sources[edit]

This page would be all the better for sources; especially on the supporting prelates. Septentrionalis 22:46, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rowan Williams was patron of AffCath UK/Ireland until his elevation to Canterbury; Jeffrey John still is involved. He led a worship session at the last AffCath conference in Durham in 2003. Gerry Lynch 10:17, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I believe you; I believed the article; but do you have a reference for this? Septentrionalis 15:47, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Since Anglicans on WP find "Catholicism" so ambiguous that they have blocked Catholics from using the name of the Catholic Church, this term should like-wise be too ambiguous for this article. I would like to propose the name be changed to "Affirming Anglo-Catholicism." --Vaquero100 00:22, 18 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This looks like WP:POINT. On the merits, "Affirming Catholicism" is the name of the organization, and the article, and this talk page, should be here. Septentrionalis 17:55, 18 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is an ambiguous title. "Catholic" could mean any "Catholic" church. Following the argumentation used by Anglicans to suppress the name of the Catholic Church based on ambiguity, this article's name must be changed. If it is to remain the same, then the RCC article needs to move to Catholic Church. Why is it that Anglicans are permitted to use Catholic as unambiguous and Catholics are not. The name of the Catholic Church is in fact, the Catholic Church. --Vaquero100 19:35, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Balance[edit]

I have tried to tweak this a bit. Affirming Catholicism has always been most active as the focus of Anglo-Catholic support for women's ordination (as a counter to "Forward in Faith"). Inclusiveness relating to sexual orientation, although it is now something of an issue, is much less central to the movement's history, especially outside the US.

This source is anti, but has some interesting statistics, confirming the above statement. It states "Perhaps surprisingly only 64% support the ordination of practising homosexuals." That is lower than the 76% who have a problem with the virgin birth. --Pan Gerwazy 22:26, 24 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
