Urth Digest, Vol 70, Issue 47

Subject: re: (Urth) Religious writers and their audience. Regarding Tolkien's alleged Anglican agnosticism... He was a devout Catholic. And I'm quite sure CS Lewis (Church of England) would take grave offense at that characterization. (Afterwards he would of course forgive you and likely have you over for a pint. When is that man's canonization going forth, btw?)

I don't think the Anglicans still canonize. I think Lewis, in point of fact, argued against new canonizations. That said, Lewis has been added to the Episcopal Church's calendar with his own day of rememberance, November 22nd.

I think you are correct w regard to the Anglicans, but I was (half jokingly) referring to the Catholics!
