anglo catholic

Also, how does christina rossetti (the poet) relate to both movements.

The Anglo-Catholic movement is an organisation involved in reconciling Anglicanism with Catholicism.

The movement is based on the idea that there are three branches of Catholicism. Catholicism, Orthodox and Anglicanism, and their main difference are just on the surface. They believe that Anglicanism is a "Church Catholic" rather than a "church Protestant."

However, these three churches do have deeper theological differences. Anglicanism ultimately can not be reconciled with Catholicism, as Anglo-Catholics would attempt, as it clings to Protestant ideals which are in conflict with Catholicism. However, there are Anglicans out there that (personally) maintain very Catholic ideals.

To understand the differences, one should compare the Catholic Catechism and the Anglican "39 Articles."

Christina Rossetti was very into the Anglo-Catholic movement. She was involved, romantically, with men who are Catholic but they ended up separating over religious beliefs.

I was divorced young, when after 3 months of marraige my husband left me for another woman. I am now 28 and plan to marry again, will I be allowed? Do you have to have been christened a catholic in order to marry in a catholic chucrh? I was not christened but my partner was in a C of E church, thanks

The Catholic or CoE won't marry you but the United Reform almost certainly will. Just don't tell them you aren't Christened.

Why aren't the Jewish cowards attacking America and Britain who turned a blind eye to the killing of some Jews during 1939-45.

Because Jews received a free land as a compensation from Britain and endless American tax dollars supporting Jews in Israel. There is no money in attacking those who are responsible for their fathers' deaths.

If you do not know what an Anglo-Catholic Episcopalian is, then please ignore that part of the question.

Yes, they can for sure if they marry in the Catholic Church and their priest is willing/able to do the Latin rite.

I don't know how many A-C Episcopalian priests are capable of that.

who do they answer to? in the run of things? do they have anglican or catholic bishops? or anglo-catholic bishops?
what sets the anglo-catholics apart from anglican and catholic? for example... where do they stand on the subject of mary? do they pray to saints? any info well received...

sensible answers please, as far as i'm concerned it's a sensible question, and i genuinely want to be enlightened xxxx thanks guys!

Anglo-Catholics or High Anglicans report to the Anglican Church but they have a lot of communication with the Catholic Church. High Anglicans are more likely to have a crucifix in their church, to offer something a little like confession, though not in a sacramental form. They certainly talk to saints, and those that have died, though there is much less time spent discussing saints.

Mary is not viewed as highly, because part of the de-emphasis on Mary was designed to lessen the role of women, it's somewhat ironic that some Anglicans (though generally not High Anglicans, will have female priests.)

I'd think of it as Catholicism-lite. There's a lot in common, but they are still considered to be Anglican, not Catholic.

Some Anglicans, like one of your other responders, are not pleased with the practice of High Anglicanism, and this has been a huge internal issue within the Anglican Church since the split. (btw, these people do not like to be refered to as "low" Anglicans...I discovered this while I was still a High Anglican. Aparently, that term is considered insulting.)

Edit: There is a chance you are refering to English Catholics with the term Anglo-Catholics, though it's often used to refer to High Anglicans. English Catholics are roughly the same as any other Catholics.
