Aren’t you a based Anglo catholic?

You’re English and catholic and redpilled on some shit so I’d call that a based Anglo catholic

Anglo-Catholics are Protestants.

What?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Catholicism

Oh

Wow

I didn’t even know that was a thing

Just thought it meant an English person who’s a catholic

Anglo-Catholic, while not Catholic, is more based than being a cringe nondenom Evangelical

He acknowledges the sacraments, church history, etc. He's just one Newman book away from ascending.

Say what you will about Newman, he knows how to BTFO Anglicans

Honestly he's just stumbling with Mary and the Papacy.

If we're being real, Anglo Catholics are the most based of all prots

What do you guys think of Dominicans?

I have no time for Anglo-Catholics. They are heretics in denial.

The Dominicans are mostly sound. A good friend of mine will be undertaking a postulancy in a Dominican monastery in France this September.

Anglo-Catholics are completely delusional.

"You're not Catholic."

"Yes, I am. I am a part of the universal church."

"....No, you're not. We're the universal church"

"You don't *own* the word 'Catholic', we are catholics!"

"..."

Having said that, though, I honestly don't think Ordinariates are that much better.

Technically true, but the intent of deception is clear

They're not heretics, but by gum, they are the most obnoxious people on the face of the UK.

They're in communion with Rome, but they still have no problem using Protestant slurs to describe the rest of the Catholic church.

Trads are honestly more bearable than Ordinariates, and by and large, they do not make themselves easy to get on with.

All of the Ordinariates I've met are absolutely tremendous.

Very conservative, , very well-informed, loyal to Rome, dedicated to liturgical beauty, and a tremendous devotion to Our Lady.

I can't say I've had the same experience.

Everyone I've met has used the term "Romans" with a sneer in their voice when mentioning Catholics.

I am inclined to profoundly disagree with you, on this matter.

When I met one in person at March for Life who asked me what Liturgy I attend; on mentioning the TLM, he decided to go on an unwarranted diatribe of TradCats for a good 5 minutes or so.

And God forbid you mention the Sarum use without one of them crying about "Latinisation".

Hm, I guess I find Anglo Catholics more based in theory. This guy and one other are the only ones I know and they basically call themselves Catholic because they love the culture, not because they think they're the real Catholics or sumn

That's essentially what the entirety of Anglocatholcism is.

They go to Latin Mass sometimes and come out raving about the beauty but they can't square the theology basically

How unfortunate. Every Ordinariate attendee I have ever met were remarkably sound, friendly too.

It's Protestant Cosplay

Indeed.
