Plenary (5)
• Stand in the room to show P, Ca or Co –
Numbers. Overall – how Prot?
• Comment on the following quote;
• MacCulloch (1990) ‘From this story of
confusion and changing direction emerged
a Church which has never subsequently
dared define its identity decisively as
Protestant or Catholic, and which has
decided in the end that this is a virtue
rather than a handicap.’

view of the Church settlement (docs on
