THE interest in the questions raised by the Bishop of Zanzibar's Letter [100 Years Ago, 6 December 2013] is unmistakeable, and the daily press is not slow to take advantage of it in a slack season. Elsewhere we have felt compelled to deal with some letters that have been published. In this place we will do no more than say this. It is quite reasonable to say that the Church of England has been, in this unexpected way, brought to a position of crisis, but it is not for anyone to affirm that we have arrived at the parting of the ways. That will depend upon the handling of the question which has been forced upon the Archbishop of Canterbury's attention. His Grace knows as well as anyone that the present controversy is not the outcome of newly formed opinions, but is the necessary consequence of giving practical expression to opinions that have always been held by those who approve of what was done at Kikuyu. So long as those opinions were kept in the academic state, it was possible to preserve the unity of the Church of England, but if Modernists are to be allowed to fraternize with Unitarians and unbelievers, Evangelicals with Protestant Dissenters, and High Churchmen with the followers of Cardinal Bourne, we certainly have come to the point at which our paths diverge, and we must part company with each other. What was done at Kikuyu was of a piece with what has been done at Hereford, as also in some other places on certain, special occasions. Without committing ourselves to a judgment on these proceedings on the ground of their being schismatical, we feel that we are justified in saying that, at least, they are irregular, and present a great contrast to the more correct attitude that is maintained by those who happen to be of our own way of thinking.
