While there can be only independence
Of the church Of Rome, between the
national Christian churches there can
be and ought to be a brotherly inter-
dependence, remote where the nations
are remote in tradition and develop
ment, as Is the case between us and
the Orthodox Eastern churches, close
and intimate between the nearer sisters
Of the Anglican communion Our church
Is national, therefore autonomous. Our
church Is catholic, and cannot, there
fore, be a law to herself without deny
ing the very root OF her being There
may seem a contradiction here, but II
is only one Of those autonomles OF hui
man life that blend in divine harmony.
II Is, says Bishop Doane a false cath
oliclty that would wipe out or merge
into an unwieldy subordlnation the ma
tional idea.
