Royal Commission Proposes Reforms for Church of England
A Royal Commission on ecclesiastical matters suggests that the two houses of convocation meet to draft new rubrics and ornaments, review the Athanasian Creed, and modernize services. It backs abolishing the episcopal veto on prosecutions, creating a new ecclesiastical court of appeal, and placing doctrinal questions before the Episcopal Bench for final rulings. It preserves state authority over the church and urges bishops to set shorter services for special occasions.
