Default Anglicans- Value of the 39 Articles?
I personally am not sure I believe all of the 39 articles, as they have a bit of a calvinistic bent. However I am not as critical of them as some seem to be.

What are your opinions?

Like you I find some of the ones of a more Calvinistic bent challenging and can't say that I agree with them. I've heard that not even all Episcopalian priests accept them all...although they are of historical value and as you know the AC is currently creating a Covenant which can serve as an instrument of unity to help us through tumultuous times (such as we have now). Part of the covenant looks to the 39 articles, but I think this is meant as in a historical sense, not as required articles of faith. If they are turned into articles of faith that everyone is supposed to uphold, I will have a problem with that. I probably would not leave the church, but remain a quiet heretic (as I more or less am now ).

The Episcopal Church states that it does not dictate doctrine. Therefore, the Church cannot hold rigid belief in the 39 Articles as binding upon any individual. The Articles' proper context is historical, not creedal.

Well, I had never heard of the 39 Articles......... (until today)....there are some that appear to pander to the "story" that surrounds the OT, and the "beginning".but, for the most part, I have no problems with them.
