[Interfax] 22 Jul 2008--"Anglican Community is on the verge of splitting. In fact, the schism has almost formed and two hundred lacking bishops is eloquent of it," Russian Orthodox Church observer Bishop Hilarion of Vienna and Austria told an Interfax-Religion correspondent.
According to him, many Anglican bishops from Africa, including all Nigerian bishops, decided to boycott the Lambeth Conference to show their protest against liberal tendencies in the Anglican Church. "
Anglican schism reflects the situation in the whole Christian world. Polarization between traditional and liberal versions of Christianity becomes more definite and today the Anglican Church is to decide between the two options,"
Bishop Hilarion said. "Unfortunately, he concluded, the choice has been made and recent decision of the Anglican General Synod to consecrate women-bishops proves it."
