C of E (IMHO)
The C of E is the established church of England, but yet does not receive financing from the government. The government, however, does get to pick the archbishop.

Several years ago WO was proposed and the legal opinion was that it was a change of conditions under British law that would require that anyone that was unhappy to be pensioned off. The cost of a large bailout of clergy would bankrupt the C of E.

Under Lord Carey, then the Archbishop, almost no clergy left. C of E was saved. Some effects are that many building are now mosques, few people attend, and religion is optional.

Now women now demanding to be bishops and what this will mean? My humble opinion is that it will mean nothing. The “unhappy” clergy did not leave before. They will not leave now.

The sad truth is that very few people attend the C of E any more. So what the clergy does is irrelevant. Disestablishment is being debated behind closed doors. C of E is no longer a source of strength for the government but rather a liability.

Many of the clergy are Anglo Catholics spikes. Bishop Cranmer would not know who these people were. Neither would the medieval popes.
There are theological reasons for not converting but Anglo Catholics are not keen on theology. Whenever questioned about anything they just say its catholic. Reason, knowledge, and common sense are excluded from the mix.

The current pope is making a pitch for them to come to Rome. In practice this is unlikely as it was in the States.
They have to be re ordained if qualified
They won't be able to spike.
They will have to use the new catholic liturgy
They will have to submit to catholic order and discipline.

Then there are the other questions that has been a stumbling blocks here in the States.
Their orders are not recognized.
No catholic education
No respect for authority. Everyone does his thing.
Divorces
unacceptable baggage

The fact that they worship the missal and not Jesus Christ would not be a stumbling block, however, the missal is a joke in the Roman Church.

So will the C of E consecrate women bishops? Absolutely. Will there be an exodus? No.

As an aside here in th USA the line in the sand keeps getting moved with every new change in practice and doctrine. The base standard, despite the quasi pious pronouncements, is happy clappy 79 with some some Anglo Catholics. All are brain dead.

In the USA the Robinson consecration had people leave. Almost no one went into the dying continuing churches. Instead the “powers” that be, formed new structures. People ignored what St Paul said about “powers”.

The new ACNA is the Titanic on steroids.
Four different theologies, WO and the 79 bcp and 1982 hymnal. The fact that these people stayed for 30 years shows that these people are brain dead.

Gafcon and Common Cause are in the same category.

It has be pointed out to me with a smile that we may see these people when we get to heaven. After all the Bible says the dead in Christ shall rise first.
