I reject the splitting of Protestantism and Catholicism into separate axes out of principle

The Anglican sorter has sorted me. I think this quiz is much less good though than the one @theodramatist.com made

Though I get the same result essentially either way (Laudian/Old High type)

It is weird how I have so much self hatred but also, I look at myself in the mirror and am astonished at how womanly and curvy I am

It’s loony

Anglicanism is often odd because there are so many Anglicans who wish to deny their theological heritage (not only in TEC) and yet it’s the most beautiful and enriching and wonderful thing

A treasure

It’s like sitting on a treasure that leads to Jesus and not wanting it ⚓️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

On Opposition to the Ordination of Women A taxonomy of arguments, and why I'm pro-WO

This is very good. ⚓

But also this doesn't depend on a denial of Scripture, but an embrace of it, and what it so infallibly teaches.

I see such theology as being in the same tradition as that of William Wilberforce, Lemuel Haynes, Josephine Butler, Phillis Wheatley, F.D. Maurice, etc.

We should be every day, and on the last day we shall certainly be surprised at how much the Gospel truly turns things upside down.

I'm inclusively orthodox. The denial of there being gulf between the Biblical and apostolic faith and care for oppressed, marginalised, persecuted people is central to my everything.

A phenomenon I've encountered is people so used to my being traddy being confused when I do support "progressive" things. To the point multiple people have expressed their surprise at my supporting women's ordination. 😭 A lil thread explaining myself.

Women's Ordination is a glorious thing. As is the ordination of LGBTQ people. Recall Mary Magdalene. The first to preach the Gospel. There just isn't getting around that. It's GLORIOUS.

This is why I can work with the 2024 summary with major qualms. But dislike the 2022.

And I believe myself to be informed of messy realities.

It’s such a fraught topic emotionally I don’t like arguing it usually but want to be honest here about where I stand.

I don’t want to hash it out right now exactly and I respect people who disagree and are on other sides as me.

But regardless of methods for how, which can be debated, I believe abortion to be an ill that should be reduced in terms of occurrence.

My stance on this issue is firm I have to say.

Not without nuance, I don’t think, but firm. And borne of the same theology that sees me being anti-war, anti-death penalty, anti euthanasia/eugenics and generally opposed to violence.

Pluralistic usage of non-Christian prayer and Quaran readings in Christian services

I will never tolerate this

I don’t want to have an argument

Others responses are presently helping me (it won’t affect you, etc.) but I can’t be brought around to “it’s good”.
