Anglitics

I have to be brief, unfortunately. I am just wondering at all of the Catholic handwringing over the American Anglitics and their desire for self-destruction, especially the folks who seem to wear long faces and write in very SERIOUS tones. Of course I am not a contender for Mr. Ecumenical 2003, so perhaps it is just a perspective thing, BUT...

Is it really possible for a real Catholic to NOT want to watch the false church of Henry VIII fall into the sea and never be seen again? Obviously we do not want to wish this of the individuals in the Anglican Communion, but it would seem that every soul who leaves the Real Absence of Canterbury for the True Faith of Rome should be the cause of rejoicing. It is a Triumph (there! I've said it) of the Holy Spirit and Christ's Church for the institutional structure of this dangerous false church to crumble.

Now, I certainly recognize that we do not want to lose the individual Anglicans to the even worse philosophies of secular humanism, paganism, atheism or Mohammedanism, but to worry one iota over the viability of an idolatrous pseudo-church that fakes sacraments, an institution that has caused nothing but misery for the Irish people, an institution born out of adultry and murder, confirmed with massive bloodshed, willful schism and heresy, even to the point of breaking Apostolic succession, seems, well, to be valuing "tolerance" and "diversity" over Truth.

Sure, pray for the poor confused Anglicans, but pray that they will come home to Rome, not that they will stabilize the sham structure of Henry VIII!
