Best Answer

Depending upon the Parish, The blessed Sacrament. Some Anglican Parishes have the Blessed Sacrament reserved in tabernacles and other Anglican parishes fully consume the blessed sacrament after mass and do not reserve the blessed sacrament. Since the breakaway during the reign of King Henry, both churches are still basically the same. Today the Anglican church is leaning further towards the traditions of the parent church. Answer There are very little differences between the interior of a Catholic and Anglican church. Both have altars at the east end (although most Anglicans call it the 'Communion Table'). All have pulpits, fonts (baptitries), lecterns, communion rails, and so on. The main differences are * that the Anglican Church is very eclectic - drawing Christians of all styles of worship. Contrary to the answer above, the Anglican Church is not leaning towards the traditions of the 'parent' church, whatever that means. If anything it is moving towards the evangelical tradition, and becoming more protestant. Those of a Catholic tradition but within the Church of England are becoming more isolated as they refuse to accept the wishes of the majority of the Church, decided upon by prayer and discernment of God's will for the church, and are, on average, less evangelical (in the 'outward looking' sense) than the rest so that that branch of the church is slowly dying. The acceptance of women as priests in the 1990s, and the recent acceptance of women bishops has meant that leaning towards a parent church in the Catholics is a misconception, and it means that unity with the Catholics is unlikely in the forseeable future, until the Catholics adopt a more modern and informed approach. * The church has all the advantages of being a state church - in that all ppeople in the Anglican Church have the right to pastoral and spiritual care whether they attend church or not, but the church does not have to sumbit to the authority of an 'infallible' Pope. The head of the Anglican church is Jesus Christ, and the supreme governor on earth is the reigning monarch. Thus, the Anglican church takes its teaching from The Bible rather than from the church heirarchy.

Can an Anglican Catholic priest say Mass at a Roman Catholic Church?

The Anglican Church is not called the Anglican Catholic Church, and the Catholic Church is not formally known as the Roman Catholic Church even though the Vatican is indeed located in Rome. Your question therefore would more accurately read, can an Anglican priest say Mass at a Catholic Church. The answer is, the Catholic religion does not allow Anglican priests to officiate at their rituals. The Anglican Church, despite being extremely similar to the Catholic Church in most respects, is nonetheless regarded by Catholicism as a heretical schism.

Is Anglican Christianity or Catholic?

No WAY!!! The Anglican church is probably one of the closER Protestant "branch religions" to the Catholic Church, but it is still a Protestant religion.
