Vatican Poaching Anglicans

Some Anglicans aren't very happy with their religion, since Anglicanism has moved towards equal rights for females and homosexuals. The Catholics, sensing an opportunity, are doing all they can to scoop up disgruntled Anglicans:

The Roman Catholic Church unveiled a new juridical framework for the conversions in response to "repeated and insistent" petitions from Anglicans to join the Church, the Vatican said in a statement.

The move could attract thousands of Anglicans from around the world, including the United States, Australia and Africa.

Sounds like war:

But the announcement sparked shrill headlines in Britain, with The Times of London describing the move as "potentially the most explosive development in Anglican-Catholic relations since the Reformation."

The result of this will be mixed: a slightly more conservative Catholic body, but a more enlightened Anglican Church.
