Beyond "Might is right' Anglican civil war and the Failure to Find a Magisterium.

Please consdier subscribing to my substack https://drgavinashenden.substack.com/ Worldwide Anglicans have been dealing with the problem of authority and the culture wars. There are about 80 million Anglicans in the world at the moment and a conservative coalition of provinces and primates called Gafcon represents about 80% of them. This 80% has been running a parallel jurisdiction for the last few decades but has yet to mount a direct challenge to the authority of the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Anglican Communion. In the last few days Gafcon has been meeting in Nigeria with the intention of electing a conservative primate who would re-figure, reconfigure worldwide conservative Anglicanism around Gafcon, and challenge the dominance of the Anglican Communion which was always chaired by right by the Archbishop of Canterbury. The impatience of the Africans with this arrangement was twofold. There are very few Anglicans left in England, and the English Anglican establishment has sold out to the zeitgeist; the historical legacy of colonial domination seems less appropriate with each year of diminishing heterodox influence of the Archbishop of Canterbury. Most of the Anglicans in the world live and worship in Africa. For non-Anglicans it should be noted that Gafcon stands for the Global Anglican Future Conference, suggesting that what it lacks in poetry makes up for in accuracy. The world was all set for this challenge taking place in Nigeria as the traditional provinces gathered, between conservative Anglicanism and the progressive secular form that dominates both the United Kingdom and America.
