How can Anglicans have a Basilica?

never underestimate the cyber world

 

[benedictine]

I thought a Basilica was just a really big church/cathedral.

Hey, it's ok. We're just building our own version of St. Paul's Cathedral! That said, we need some pews. These are from St.Paul's church in Columbus, Oh. The diocese recently closed St. Paul's, so they won't mind if we borrow these.

A basilica is a cathedral that has the honor of a special papal 'privilege', regardless of the size-- although most of them are larger. The pope can ONLY spend the night in a basilica. (The Vatican is a basilica). There are only a handful of basilicas in the US, so when there is a papal visit, he must stop at one of them for any overnight stays.

 

[benedictine]

Oh. That would explain why the one in Stockbridge is so very small. Well, I guess we're just making the Cathedral church of STR, then.

 

[gtsecc]

It would be fine with me if HH JP II wanted to spend the night at my parish.

Same here. Or, as is more likely now, +++John Paul III

What does "+++John Paul III" mean?

 

[benedictine]

The Current pope is John Paul II. The successor might be John Paul III.

 

[gtsecc]

Do you put three +++ in front of a Pope?
++ is Arch-Bishop?

 

[benedictine]

I was thinking:
+Priest(done by himself) and Bishops
++Archbishop
+++Patriarch

Wow, is this a picture of an Anglican Church?

Altar:

 

[benedictine]

looks like St. Mary the Virgin in Manhattan.

 

[drewmeister2]

Cool! Is that parish TAC?

 

[drewmeister2]

The lady altar, and themain altar

Just out of curiosity, what parish is this? Thanks!

 

[benedictine]

no idea

It looks like St Pauls Episcople in Salt Lake City Utah! That's where my Grandma goes to church, and I think that's where I had my first communion. I can't remember. That's where I was baptized.
Slainte!
