Are Anglicans not a subset of Protestants then? Always thought they were. I tend to classify myself as <em>'Christian, other'</em> when I have to fill in forms that ask nowadays - I'm not particularly protesting about anything.

People who rant on about that don't understand basic economics. Say a country like Somalia that no-one really wants to go to.
