Great read! I don't mean to pry, but I gather you're still a Christian based on your other posts. Out of curiosity, if you don't mind, of course, you said you were Anglican––did you switch denominations or shift to a different sect (Catholicism, Orthodoxy, etc.)? And what encouraged the move?
I'm a Roman Catholic. I was raised in the Church, became an atheist in my teenage years, and returned to Christianity by way of Anglicanism. I returned to Rome largely as a result of my increasing disillusion with the social and moral liberalism that currently plagues the Anglican Communion (particularly as regards abortion and sexual ethics). Of course, this was not the only issue (there were also more straightforward theological concerns), but it was a major factor. Thanks for reading!
Thank you for sharing that. It makes sense, as far as I can tell the Church of England has also forfeited its categorical right to be called Christian.
