Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the origins of vestments and rituals used in the contemporary Anglican Church. The author draws from historical sources to trace the Catholic origins of these traditions, arguing that most have no basis in Catholic history. Instead, the author posits that these traditions are actually rooted in symbolism derived from Roman Catholic traditions, and were introduced to the Anglican Church only relatively recently. The book argues that none of the practices under discussion are truly "Catholic," nor are they derived from Apostolic times. The author contends that trying to paint these practices as such is a dishonest attempt to present them in a more ancient and authoritative light. The author also points out that there is no uniform consensus on the symbolism and the meaning of these rituals across different branches of Christianity, further undermining claims of a universal Catholic origin.
