Strangely enough, my thoughts exactly. I'm sure there are Anglican
websites that would give a perspective from "inside."
Just out of curiosity, though -- did you look at the Catholic
Encyclopedia articles, and do you have any comments? Bear in mind it's
the 1913 edition, I believe.
P.S. -- how come your posts always come up as if you're quiting someone
else? Those little ">" symbols in front of every line --

Basicaly, their theology is the same as the Catholic theology, including the
sacraments and the Holy Mass, except for the doctrine about the papacy, and
naturaly the development after the reformation. Their teaching about moral
questions (explained in details at the above home-page) is less rigorous than
the catholic teaching.

If you are looking for the equivalent of the Catholic Catechism, then
yup, it ain't on the website.
If, however, you are looking for what it means to be an Anglican, then
that's there, as is all sorts of references.
May I point out that the CofE is a pretty broad church, with members
from both evangelical and 'traditional' wings.

Someone else mentioned Anglicans online. That is, to my mind, the best single
website.
http://anglicansonline.org/
The online Book of Common Prayer is:
http://justus.anglican.org/resources/bcp/
Anglican Daily Office:
http://www.missionstclare.com/english/index.html
Lectionary Reading (These are usually the same as the Catholic readings)
http://www.io.com/~kellywp/lectionary.html
If you have an interest in Cathedral Music (and EVERYONE should) the exhaustive
resource is:
English Cathedral Music
http://www.cathmus.ndirect.co.uk/
And if you wish to ask Anglicans questions or lurk on a conversation,
"Episcotalk" is a fine message board.

Nope.
The attiitude to the Eucharist can vary widely. Reservation of the
scarament is quite definitely *not* the norm, The same goes for the
sacrament of Reconciliation.
Women are now ordained to the priesthood, but they are not accepted in
all dioceses. The decision to ordain women caused an enormous amount of
controversy with some folk hopping over to Rome, with various degrees of
misogynous comments as parting shots.
As I said earlier, the CofE is a broad church.

If you read the 2nd paragraph(under beliefs) of the above website it pretty
well lays out what the Church of England beliefs are. As I remember them.

I was born and raised in the Church of England my family immigrated from
England to the US in the early 1900,s I converted to Catholicism when I was
25 I still have family in England who are members in good standing in the
Church of England. So I happen to know a little about the "Church of
England" from having been a member for 25 years.

1) You were "born and raised in the Church of England
2) Your family emigrated "to the US in the early 1900,s"
How old does that make you ?

Ah, sorry.
I thought that, from your statement <So I happen to know a little about
the "Church of England" from having been a member for 25 years.>, you
were claiming to be both au fait with the culture and in daily contact
with the various controversies etc.
Which is obviously not what you meant.
Apologies.

At the time the Church of England and the Episcopal were considered one in
the same in our family and the large immigrant English community here in Los
Angeles, in fact they were considered more English than in England in some
]ways(we used to celebrate Guy Fawkes Day and all that as a holiday etc.)
If I should have used the term Episcopal Church I,ll stand corrected. As to
the "Anglican" thing there was little or know mention of it in those days in
connection with the Episcopal Church(Church of England) around here. To be
honest about it as a boy and young man I thought the whole idea of "Church"
was boring and spent most of my time on Sunday trying to get out of going.
It was only when I converted to Catholism that I started to take a real
interest in religion
Thanks for the correction

Jim,
The Church of England is Chartered in England, not the United States of
America. Would you be kind enough to explain how you could have been raised in
the CofE if your family moved to the U.S in the early 1900's (at least 20 years
before you were born, and without your knowing what "Anglican" means) ..
remember an earlier corresondence?. I think you are a phony.

Both you and Darling are making the same mistake your both jumping to
conclusions as to what I said. If you read my original post(reproduced
below) I never said I was an expert on the Episcopal/Church of
England/Anglican etc. Church what I did say is I happen to know a LITTLE
about the "Church of England" Even though I was born and raised in the
Episcopal/Church of England/Anglican Church that does not make me an expert
on the subject and I never clamed to be one. Like most of its members at the
time I was not that interested. When you had to go through the motions of
going to "church" or were forced to because of family duties or the military
it filled the bill other than that forget it.

Once again. apologies for mis-reading you but a statement such as
>>>So I happen to know a little about the
>>>"Church of England" from having been a member for 25 years.
can be read as "Oy you, I was a member for 25 years, so I know what I'm
talking about"

Sorry did not mean to mislead you
Just after the War started in Europe I think it was during the Blitz, a
couple of my English cousins among other children in the family from England
who were sent over here to get them out of danger. They wound up living with
us for the duration, among other things the way they talked there was very
little difference between the Church of England in England and the Episcopal
Church here in the Los Angeles Area ei. use of The Foxes Book of Martyrs,
Candles, etc. in as much as they were near my age one of my jobs was to
help them get acquainted with LA which included going to church.

I can see where you are coming from now, but ...
.... you are basing your current assessment on what a couple of kids
told you over 50 years ago. The CofE has, like most of the UK, changed
quite a bit since then.

No Along with my 2 cousins from England from there were about 20-30 adult
family members in this area who were from as I recall a place called
Youville(sp) England(I think it is to the southeast of London) We were a
close knit English family all living with in 20 miles of each other in the
LA Area in the 1920,30,s and 40,s We had family get to gathers about
once a month at somebody's house which led every so often to the
subject of religion and the Church of England among the adults
(we children were not allowed to be part of the discussion) What I,m
trying to say is a lot of my idea,s with regards to the
Episcopal/Church of England were formed by listening to these discussions
>The coffee has, like most of the UK, changed quite a bit since then.
So I understand from the posts on this NG. I hope there not as anti-Catholic
as they used to be, that's the one thing that turned me off when it comes to
the Episcopal/Church of England Church.

Shall we just say that there is still plenty of misunderstanding around,
though nowhere near as much as this ng sees.
In England, the late great Cardinal Basil Hume was instrumental in
shifting majority opinion so that Catholics are no longer seen as
'seriously other' and, more importantly, automatic supporters of the
IRA. He showed by example that the phrase 'loving, caring, holy,
spiritual Catholic' was not an oxymoron. May he rest in peace.
