I have often loved the quote I found on an Anglican web page:
"Jesus came to take away your sins, not your mind."

(I'm sure there's a Garrison Keillor-wannabe item *somewhere* on Grex.
Let's use this one for discussing the Anglicans..)

The word for "heretic" has it's roots in the greek word heresis.This word
means sect or denomenation. All you need for salvation is Jesus. All
denomenations are heresy. Paul addressed the issue of division in 1st cor.
in the first chapter. No matter what"church"(this term by the way has it's
roots in the word circe..a sorceress)you attend you will go to the lake of
fire if you don't have Jesus.

I don't know anything about Anglicans, but I just read the article
above. I like the fact that the church leaders are called "Primates".
Apparantly many of the Primates are still carrying on the fight against
Darwinism, being, for some reason, particularly sensitive to the
accusation that they are related to monkeys.

To the best of my knowledge, the Anglicans do not oppose the
teaching of evolution, nor are they a fundamentalist denomination.
See the quote in my resp:2 from one of the Anglican web pages.

I think the origin of King Henry VIII's authority to found his own
church is the Divine Right of Kings. No king could rule if it were
against the will of God. Apparently Henry couldn't found his own
church if it were against the will of God. It was the will of God that
Henry rule in England. Henry had God in his pocket, one might say.

Hmmm, I've done a few potlucks and jello salad, just not at an
Anglican church.

what was in the jello salad? Was it lime with carrot shreds? Was it red with
marshmallows?

I've attended my share of Lutheran potlucks where amazing
Jello salads served as edible art. I love 'em. In fact,
many years ago I decided the Jesus part wasn't for me.
But Jello remains a friend.

The church I went to when I was a kid had amazing potlucks and banquets.
Generally the more rural the area, the better the people are at cooking
mass quantities of food. A lot of women grew up on farms where they
were expected to cook a big meal for the field hands at the end of the day.

The jello salads I grew up around were lime jello with cottage cheese and
pineapple (no joke - it's actually quite good) and orange jello with shredded
carrots and pineapple (still a fave). I now make sparkling mandarin orange
jellow with crushed pineapple and mandarin oranges. People love it.

Recently I attended a potluck for Arlo's preschool and was amazed to find that
it consisted largely of Fried Chicken (mostly Colonel Sanders') and jello
salad. I've been to lots of Ann Arbor potlucks before, but have never seen
either. I guess I hang out in the wrong circles. There must be whole
different potluck cultures.

Yes. Different potluck cultures are typically a reflection of
differences in socioeconomic, philosophical, and/or epicurean status.
Since these types of status form multilayed, overlapping regions, the
resulting complexity of potluck cultural variation is immense.
