.....Indeed, it has been a remarkable spiritual impact in the world of Christianity, after the step taken by British former Prime Minister, Tony Blair, after finally sealed his spiritual desire, at new spiritual destination. After his past visits to Vatican, it created some speculations which had no clear standing, till he made a strong confirmation last week, just some hours before Chrismass. Does it prompts other Anglicans to take similar step?
....Also latest research revealed that in the UK, catholic churchgoers out numbers those of church of England!
....On the other hand, along with some discussions between Anglican heads and Vatican in the past days, while focusing on the possibilities to recombine the two large denominations, to form what could be viewed as a more cemented, powerful Catholic church. Could this (Blair's) step enhance for increased discussion frequency between the two churches, thus maximize unification within this decade!

Wow, I had not heard of this before now. A link to the news story would be great.
I think it should be the goal of all Christians to seek one faith, one heart, and one mind.

Just confirms how naive he really is.
You write: "some discussions between Anglican heads and Vatican in the past days, while focusing on the possibilities to recombine the two large denominations,"
And if you actually believe this is even remotely possible, you are more naive than Blair.
And the Anglican union itself is splintering as we speak, largely due to the election of a gay Bishop in the U.S.

No thought, although if the final time that there grow to be a difficulty with the Catholics grow to be for the duration of Charles a million reign, seems to be an on going problem having a spouse who's a catholic as chief of the country, why do you think of that Charles grow to be no longer allowed to marry any of the european Princesses who have been obtainable for the period of the 70's.

No. just because one person converts would not make other people convert. If that's the case, we'd be having much more muslim converts(considering muhammad ali and cat stevens are very popular). When it comes to religion, it is very hard to change someone's mind(i thought after reading debates from R and S you would know that by now). Unless either they haven't really been into it or they have very personal decisions or incidents that make them feel that way.

Just shows what a lost soul the guy is. Now he wants the Pope to brain wash him instead of Bush?
Personally I have no faith in churchs that are riddled with pedophiles!
