Lewis, two important (and Anglican!) figures in the formation of classical education as we know it today. I will admit that I'm lucky - my husband has a master's in divinity from Yale, so any questions I have regarding various denominations' beliefs are easily answered.
I also find it fascinating to read about other denominations. I recently went to a Greek Orthodox funeral, which was interesting.
eta - back on topic. Have there been any reports as to the parishoners' reactions to the letter from the priest? Or from his bishop?
