What's a middle-of-the-road Anglican to do?

These are tough times for church goers.

Not only do they have to contend with the vast bulk of the population who never go near a church and look on Christians as having two heads, they have to deal with internal division so vitriolic, they're beginning to think they have two heads themselves.

Just ask any Anglican.

The Anglican church of Canada's many problems have been much in the headlines lately as a small number of congregations have voted to leave ostensibly over the issue of same sex marriage, but really because the evangelicals within the church don't want to deal with more liberal views of Christianity itself.

The same struggle is going on in other mainstream churches, but nowhere is the animosity so public as in the Anglican church globally where the division is between the vast majority of Anglicans who live in developing nations and are largely fundamentalists versus the smaller number of Anglicans in western countries like Canada, the U.S. and Australia who are largely more liberal in outlook.
