| The RC participants are clear that the "age-old" practice of ordination by a bishop as well as episcopacy remain normative. It is not only theologically incorrect to recognize the "genuine character" of the Anglican episcopacy, but such a position runs counter to the teaching of the Magisterium over the past four centuries. The Navigation Acts would follow, as would religious regulations that called for moral reformation and the abolition of episcopacy in favor of sectarian toleration. |
