laudable Practice

Laudable Practice is a "poor priest" (c.f. Herbert's 'Aaron') in the Church of Ireland, living in Jeremy Taylor country, and enjoying the poetry of Wendell Berry. 'High and Dry', blogging on the riches of the 'Old' (Luke 5:39) High Church tradition, a historian by background, and particularly delights in leading Sunday Prayer Book Mattins and Evensong in the parish.

Anglican "We do show it plainly that God's holy Gospel, the ancient bishops, & the primitive Church do make on our side" Jewel's 'Apology'

Laudian "For my care of this Church, the reducing of it into Order, the upholding of the Externall Worship of God in it, and the setling of it to the Rules of its first Reformation, are the causes (and the sole causes, what ever are pretended) of all this malicious storme, which hath lowred so black upon Me, & some of my Brethren" Archbishop Laud, 1637

Burkean "Violently condemning neither the Greek nor the Armenian, nor, since heats are subsided, the Roman system of religion, we prefer the Protestant: not because we think it has less of the Christian religion in it, but because, in our judgment, it has more. We are Protestants, not from indifference, but from zeal" Burke's 'Reflections'

Clerk in Holy Orders "I assent to the Thirty-nine Articles of Religion, and to the Book of Common Prayer, and of the Ordering of Bishops, Priests, and Deacons. I believe the doctrine of the Church of Ireland, as therein set forth, to be agreeable to the Word of God" Church of Ireland Declaration of Assent.
