Anglikaanisille

Anglikaanisille refers to Anglicans, followers of the Anglican Communion. The Anglican Communion is a global association of churches that are in communion with the Archbishop of Canterbury. It traces its origins to the Church of England, which separated from the Roman Catholic Church in the 16th century. Anglicanism is often described as a "middle way" between Catholicism and Protestantism, incorporating elements of both traditions.

Anglican churches are characterized by their liturgy, which is often based on the Book of Common Prayer, and their hierarchical structure with bishops, priests, and deacons. The Archbishop of Canterbury serves as a spiritual head and a focus of unity for the Communion, though each national church is autonomous. Theology within Anglicanism is diverse, with varying interpretations of scripture, tradition, and reason.

The Anglican Communion is one of the world's largest Christian denominations, with millions of adherents across many countries. Its global reach means that Anglicanism encompasses a wide range of cultural expressions and practices. Debates on theological and social issues are common within the Communion, reflecting its diverse membership.
