The battle lines are drawn in what some believe will be the final
showdown between liberals and conservatives in the Anglican Church.
If the two sides can't agree, the cracks which began to show over
the ordination of women may well become an unbridgeable chasm and
the church will split. The catalyst is the row over the
consecration of a gay bishop in America, but Jonathan Clatworthy
argues that it goes deeper than that, to the very roots of
Anglicanism itself. Clatworthy believes that classical Anglican
theology is by definition liberal. It affirms tradition but is open
to new insights and humble enough to accept that our knowledge can
never be complete or certain. The Church should be inclusive,
welcoming, and open to debate, allowing differences of opinion to
continue until consensus is reached. Conservative Christians see it
differently; this book explains why the two views may well be
irreconcilable.
