The reason they need to 'petition' is that whole church communities are joining all at once. This means that everything from the buildings to the pastors to the people will be joining. It's like a business merger so it takes a lot of planning.

You heard incorrect. or possibly you heard purely area of the story. first of all, the "Anglican Church" international is a very fragmented entity in the beginning. The Anglican Church in each and every united states is its own corporation, with out formal bureaucratic circumstances to different Anglican church homes in different international locations. So, in concept, one Church, like the Anglican Church Of Canada or the Episcopal Church in the rustic ought to connect the Roman Catholic Church. yet it relatively isn't happening. what's happening is that there are hundreds of man or woman Anglican Church participants - even many clergymen and a few Bishops - who're starting to be a member of the RC Church. There have additionally been distinctive parish church homes that have joined Rome. and that i think of there have surely been an entire Diocese or 2 that have left the Anglican Church and unquestionably seen Rome. the main important motives for this chop up is an ever increasing liberal theology, ordination of girls individuals, and the marriage gay persons as properly simply by fact the ordination of brazenly gay persons. The Pope has additionally devised some style of formal association wherein an Anglican man or woman or an Anglican team can connect the RC Church and save many factors of their Anglican background. i do no longer understand how many people have long gone this way, yet i could be curious to appreciate.

Well, I'm torn on this one.
*No really!*
Most of the time I don't give a rat's what religionists of any stripe do as long as it doesn't hurt anyone else (which it often does,of course.)
But the C o E is a lot less harmful than the RCs so the idea of the less harmful losing members to the more harmful is not good.
