Update on Reformation Anglicanism

This blog promised to be more about book reviews, scholarly articles and the like. We promised not to become another news outlet. We fear the latter is occurring as we attempt to follow the various leads on offer, e.g. Antichrist's offer to Romanizing Anglicans. Our blog list--which does not imply our endorsement--tracks various postings worldwide.

Although we are but three months old, our web hits have doubled over one month---from 50/day to over 100/day. We're covering the news as well as, if not better than, Virtue. In fact, we get articles on here before he does. Recently, we've been ahead of him everytime...although we've not tried to do that.

Yet, he has friends in high places and his website shows that. That's not our goal.

The "theology" articles at http://www.virtueonline.org/ reflects the non-Reformational character of his friends, sponsors (Nashotah House, etc.), bishops and others. See any articles posted by Dr. Thompson of Sydney? Or any articles from the archives of http://www.churchsociety.org/? Why not? Because Virtue's friends would object, especially from the "father Taylor," or "boy Taylor" as we rightly call him. Taylor is one of Virtue's incompetent moderators, a hatchet-man of few achievements. The same for his other immoderator, Mr. Robert Webber, a website manager, but not an historian or theologian. Repeated requests for information on their credentials has met with silence---every time.

We'll try to recover our first objective...articles, book reviews and good blogspots.

We read of the "Global Anglican Institute" at VOL, but we never seem to get any articles to read. For a professional news organization, like VOL, we expected more. We've lowered expectations and we've not been disappointed.

If anything is needed these days in Anglicanism, it is a robust discussion of the English Reformation, its theology, it authors and, above all else, its profound, abiding, and deep appreciation for that "Word which is above every other word," a Sovereign Word that transcends the windbaggeries at VOL, the defenses of Tractarianism in the ACNA, and our own imperfect postings.

But this much, we have a better compass than Virtue, any day---even on the bad days.
