50 Questions to ask the Pope, Archbishop of Canterbury and any Trinitarian Christian leader

https://www.thefreedictionary.com/Tractarian+movement

Anglican priest:

These diatribes have lost much of their sting. The Tractarians lived in an age when religion was important to people's lives or even in the public sphere. Today England is post-God. Hence only a few aficionados care for them. And the Church of England is in free fall. Of course, as an Anglican priest I still believe that the doctrines and theology enshrined in the Book of Common Prayer are an elegant and sensible expression of mainline English Christianity. God willing, we can fight back from there!

Claire Khaw:

  1. Do even ordained priests believe that an executed revolutionary is the co-equal of the supreme and eternal Abrahamic God who created the Universe?
  2. Isn't worshipping an executed revolutionary as the co-equal of the supreme and eternal Abrhaamic God in fact idolatry?

  4. Didn't the Ten Commandments forbid idolatry and blasphemy?
  5. Haven't Christians confirmed Christ's blasphemy by worshipping him and his mother as an idol for 2000 years?
  6. If God has taken the trouble to forbid idolatry and blasphemy, should Christians expect to be punished after 2000 years of it?
  7. After the collapse of three global Christian empires, it would be the easiest thing for Islam to move into the moral vacuum that is Christianity, wouldn't you agree?
  8. As an Anglican priest, would you happen to know the number of confirmed Christians in Britain?

  23. Are most parents in your society married parents?
  24. Isn't the Archbishop of Canterbury himself a bastard?
  25. What would you say are Christians principles?

  32. How likely is the West to have a Christian revival in our lifetimes, even we were all born yesterday?

  34. How would an Anglican priest define idolatry?
  35. Are you aware that most of the American founding fathers were in fact proto-Muslim?
  36. What is your view of the Socinian controversy?

  43. Could it be said priests are fattened maggots feeding off the corpse of Christ whose beliefs are now indistinguishable from liberalism?
  44. Have Westerners been traumatised by their knowledge that their ancestors have been forcibly converted into Christianity and tricked into worshipping a Jew on a stick as well as his mother for 2000 years?
