When they form NIGPNA they will cease to be part of the Anglican Communion, having lost their already tenuous connection through membership in PSC. But it appears they don't really care. GAFCON is the wave they are catching, not the Anglican Communion."</I><BR/><BR/>Reports say that Rowan Williams has told Robert Duncan to begin the process of application for provincial status. Assuming that's correct (there's not too much information available about their 15 October meeting), then it's quite simply not the case that the new province (or the Anglican Communion, for that matter!) care at all to separate.<BR/><BR/>Again, I think this sort of sentiment comes more from accusations of what the other side is about rather than actual listening to them. GAFCON, AMiA, CANA, and everyone else has always been clear about the importance of unity.Evanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12259004160963531720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10326675.post-80958691841249383962008-11-18T00:56:00.000-05:002008-11-18T00:56:00.000-05:00On colours: In Canada, the very right wing party ...On colours: In Canada, the very right wing party is blue, the right wing party is red and the left wing party is orange - however the separatist party is a different shade of blue.Malcolm+https://www.blogger.com/profile/08469936715413110334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10326675.post-23767507468531668882008-11-17T12:27:00.000-05:002008-11-17T12:27:00.000-05:00Mark,Yes...

But I guess that every group will have to make their mind on their own and proclaim their allegiance to the Dear Archbishop.<BR/><BR/>And my aim was really to question the fact that so far each group failed to unite under any particular leader and each one has done their own thing.<BR/><BR/>Consider CANA: Will CANA become a Diocese? Will they join one of the existing dioceses? Will Mimms et all acquiesce to be just suffragan(s)?<BR/><BR/>For now the partnership will cease to be just dinner at the Ritz, and will become an institution to which they will have to pledge some sort of formal obedience.<BR/><BR/>These groups so far have marched to the tune of their own agenda (1928 PB, WO, "New and Improved Reformation", and so forth) and have been backed by different Anglican provinces.<BR/><BR/>Will be another instance of let bygones be bygones and come home under Father-Knows-Best?<BR/><BR/>Again, hmmm... I believe there is more ego around than the envisioned dioceses! But, of course, as Jonathan+ likes to say, OCICBW!<BR/><BR/>Thomas+Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10326675.post-82840927126983468772008-11-17T11:33:00.000-05:002008-11-17T11:33:00.000-05:00david wilson...corrected that.

Thanks.<BR/><BR/>Thomas+ CANA and AMiA are part of the Common Cause Partnership, the group that will become the North American Thingy. <BR/><BR/>I've always thought that RED ought to be for the left and blue for the right...worse yet I'm a bit color blind and thought I was putting purple. Oh well.<BR/><BR/>Fred: people are doing some work. In an odd way my working on this blog is part of that. More importantly, there are many of our friends in the Anglican Communion that are not sitting this one out. The AC will continue and I believe we will be part of it.Mark Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06871096746243771489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10326675.post-71699285563398429062008-11-17T11:23:00.000-05:002008-11-17T11:23:00.000-05:00A suggested correction/addition for the map: Don'...A suggested correction/addition for the map: Don't forget that the temporarily swollen Province of the (Greater) Southern Cone currently also includes a "Diocese of Recife" carved off from the true Diocese of Recife in the IAEB (Ingreja Anglicana Episcopal do Brasil), the Brazilian member of the Anglican Communion.<BR/><BR/>Viriato da SilvaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10326675.post-42185079033076517432008-11-17T07:20:00.000-05:002008-11-17T07:20:00.000-05:00Mark You forgot the first Diocese to join the Sout...Mark <BR/><BR/>You forgot the first Diocese to join the Southern Cone, RecifeThe Rev Canon Dr David Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09878281384587956210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10326675.post-88893059741433145372008-11-16T23:08:00.000-05:002008-11-16T23:08:00.000-05:00Who's going to the new province?Will CANA join?
