essential dogmas of historic Christianity her voice is unanimous, but she imposes no excessive burdens upon the intellectual or personal liberty of her members. She maintains the essential constitution of an ecclesiastical hierarchy (Bishops, Priests and Deacons) and, in conformity with the Council of Nicaea (325) does not impose compulsory celibacy upon her clergy. And the sacraments, of which Baptism and the Eucharist are the chief, are properly and duly celebrated. She is Catholic because she is so essentially a Biblical Church, and she wisely puts both the Scripture and the Liturgy in the hands of her people in their own language." In other words, she holds dear the four principles of The Lambeth-Chicago Quadrilateral (1880) which, long before, Jeremy Taylor (1613- 1667) described as follows: "We have the Word of God , the faith of the Apostles, the Creeds of the primitive Church, the articles of the four first General Councils , a holy liturgy, excellent prayers, perfect sacraments, faith and repentance, the Ten Commandments, and the sermons of Christ, and all the precepts and counsels of the Gospel... Our priests absolve the penitent. Our Bishops ordain Priests, and confirm and baptise persons, and bless their people and intercede for them. AND WHAT COULD THERE BE WANTING FOR SALVATION?" WHAT ANGLICANISM MEANS TO ME: - THE PRAYER BOOK AND THE MASS. In this age of sensitivity training and navel-gazing we need the corrective the Prayer Book provides in its balance of "subjectivity" and "objectivity" in the practice of religion. * On February 2. 1949, The Feast of the Purification, six priests who formed the nucleus of "The Anglican Fellowship for Social Action" in the Diocese of Nova Scotia - a group that included Stavert Tanton - were summoned by Archbishop George Frederick Kingston to meet with him, and his new coadjutor Bishop. Robert Harold Waterman , at King's College, to hear complaints and accusations levelled against them by a group of laymen to the effect that they were "trouble-making, destructive, anarchic and communistic." The meeting ended when one of the group asked the Archbishop if any of the six would be among the ten best parish priests in the diocese. The Archbishop replied that all six would be included in such a list (See The Briefcase Boys, by Russell Elliott , Lancelot Press , page 126). 57
