Tradition

[edit]

This column seems highly subjective. What do some of these descriptions even mean? And to what is it referring - theological tradition or liturgical tradition? (e.g. you can be theologically traditional but liturgically modern). And of course one person's "uber high church" may, to another, just be "middle of the road with vestments and a weekly Eucharistic". I think clarity is needed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.8.47.59 (talk) 08:27, 28 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The entry under tradition depends entirely on self identification. If a church/parish describes itself as Liberal Catholic then that is what appears, if they ID as Traditional Catholic that what gets put in etc. For those who ID simply as "Catholic" (almost always "the Catholic tradition of the Church of England") Anglo-Catholic is used instead. This description is referenced. If there is not mention of being catholic or high church on their website then they are not included. In summary, it's not the articles authors that have come up with the description but the church/parish itself. I hope this helps you with your query, Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 10:10, 28 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
