Roman Catholic AnswerAlmost the same is actually completely different. The Anglicans are a group of protestants who kept some of the practices of the Catholic Church, but they, like every other protestant group were founded by men in or after the sixteenth century. The thing that separates us is that the Catholic Church was formed by Our Blessed Lord, Himself, who very explicitly stated that there would be ONE Church, which would be guided by the Holy Spirit until the end of the world. As the Catholic Church is the only ONE Church founded by Our Blessed Savior, the obvious difference is that all the other Churches were not founded by Him.

What is the commitment ceremony done by Anglican's and Catholics?

Well, honey, Anglicans have what they call a "blessing of a civil marriage" where they give a little nod to the couple's union. Catholics, on the other hand, don't really have a formal commitment ceremony for already married couples, but they do have a "convalidation" where they bless a marriage that wasn't originally recognized by the church. So, there you have it, two different ways these folks handle things when it comes to commitment ceremonies.


Are the Catholics and Anglicans doing the same things today?

Yes, many of them are. There are parish churches of both denominations where it would be hard to tell whether you were at a Roman Catholic service or an Anglican one.Roman Catholic AnswerAs a matter of fact, I am a convert from the Episcopal Church, and I worked at one not that long ago. Many years ago when I left the Episcopal Church to become Catholic, I would say that "high church" Episcopals or Anglicans did look very similar to pre-Vatican II Catholics, only in English. I actually spent some time one summer at an Episcopal monastery which rivaled Catholic monasteries for being sticklers to the old rules. Today, not so much, for the last forty years the modernists have had their hay day in both Churches, but the Catholic Church is starting to recover under the wise guidance of His Holiness, Benedict XVI, while the Anglicans are actually going further afield. Remember that despite all the things that look alike in High Church Anglican and Catholicism, the Anglicans and Episcopalians are still protestants at the end of the day, no matter how much they want to be Catholics. This has finally born fruit in that those who want to be Catholic are finally returning to the Catholic Church realizing that they can never recover what they lost in the reformation without returning to the Church. His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI has made provision for them to come back to the Church while retaining many of their own customs. So, bottom line, the Anglicans are going further in the direction of the rest of the protestants, splitting into dozens and hundreds of splinter denominations, and the Catholics in them are returning to the Church; so no, they are not doing the same things today.
