Anglicans Need More Than One Boat

Lance Lawton suggests that different Anglican groups share the same brand, despite their differences.

It has been argued that the Anglican Communion (AC) is not suitable for the twenty-first century due to its inability to reconcile radically differing views and practices, particularly regarding sexuality and marriage.
