There Hasn't Been Much New

to post about, and I've been winding down for the holidays anyhow. Nevertheless, I note this about the "worldwide Traditional Anglican Communion" remnant in the UK. The totals given in the post and the comments involve 20 "parishes", of which according to a comment nine are small missions. The comment isn't completely clear, but it appears there are additional "parishes" in this total that have fewer than 50 members.

This is the story of the whole TAC, as far as I can see. The ques5tion that comes to my mind is who benefits. At the top of the pyramid, such as it is, people like the US ACA bishops are probably living fairly well. Cruises to the Greek islands aren't cheap. Others, like Anthony Morello, are doing better than they otherwise would. The people who don't benefit are the parishioners. Those who pledge are supporting marginal operations with little future, while some part of their pledges are also supporting "bishops" whose sees are smaller than many single parishes in main line Protestant denominations.
