[VirtueOnline] 19 Jul 2008--The Lambeth Conference is not the sum total of the Anglican Communion. It is now one of many networks that make up the Anglican Communion.
This writer along with many others are now convinced that Lambeth does not represent the Anglican Communion, it is simply part of a much larger grouping of Anglicans of which the likes of GAFCON, the Common Cause Partnership and numerous other bodies are a part. No longer can Anglicanism be defined exclusively by the Archbishop of Canterbury. That day has gone. Anglican identity is a theological matter.
In the ongoing propaganda war of words about who is and is not present at Lambeth, VirtueOnline has compiled a comprehensive list of Anglican bishops who are not in Canterbury. This includes those bishops who have declined to attend Lambeth, those who were disinvited, those bishops not invited, and Anglicans who would never be invited because they are not part of the Lambeth Conference and yet are, by any theological definition, Anglican.
