Later on in the article, the episcopacy is described as 'catholic', which does not even make sense in the sense 'high chuch'. 'Catholic' means universal. Surely the relevant term is 'apostolic'. - 1846, 2 September 2009 |

Any confusion over the word "Catholic" in an Anglican context can be understood (if not entirely cleared up) by viewing [[Anglo-Catholic]] or [[Oxford Movement]]. This isn't about what the Roman Church likes to call others or what the English Church likes to call itself, it is about affirming the Catholicity of the Anglican communion, i.e. (and apropos the appearance of this discussion on King Charles's page) the presence of the [[Historical episcopate]] in the English Church and the role Charles I played in preserving the historic episcopate and the Catholic faith in Britain. There was a flourishing of the Catholic faith under the [[Caroline divines]], after all - it's part of what drove the [[Puritan]]'s crazy. Roman Catholics and low-church Anglicans alike often are confused about the Church of England's affirmation of its Catholicity (not just its catholicity, as it were), but that is understandable.

User Backnumber1662 may not like the idea of saints, but that is no reason to muck up an article. Fixed some edits. Morgaledth 02:16, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
"Catholic"
What is meant by the term "Catholic" as applied to this society? Some may think it means it is affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church but that is apparently not the case. -- Beland 21:48, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
In an Anglican context, Catholicism usually means High Church Anglicanism or Anglo-Catholicism, that is, Anglicanism with vestments, ceremonies, and some theology not dissimilar to Roman Catholicism. This is opposed to, for example, Low Church Anglicanism, which is sparser in ceremony, vestments, et cetera. - Anon.
- The word "Catholic" must be very carefully handled. The Church of England is the only Catholic Church in England, according to both its own formularies, and English Law. This must be respected. So too, however, must the desire of another denomination to be known as the "Roman Catholic" Church in England. Timothy Titus 12:52, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
- It seems odd that a patron of this Anglican society, Lord Nicholas Windsor has been reputedly received into the Church of Rome. Xxanthippe (talk) 23:43, 19 February 2008 (UTC).

Canonization
This seems to be out of date. Both the Alternative Service Book and Common Worship have restored him to the calendar. Peter jackson (talk) 10:38, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
