Also, Episcopalianism in the U.S. is the same as Anglicanism in the U.K., except it isn't subject to the British monarch.
Not clear whether Richard is just trolling, but of course Anglicanism is not subject to the pope. That's kind of its raison d'etre, in fact. You do realize that vast majority of Protestant Christians in America do not consider members of the Anglican Church as real Christians? Can you back that statement up? > Maybe he means in S.C. - Protestant Christianity is Western Christianity that is not subject to the Roman Catholic Pope. Go figure.
