Anglican bishop says Catholics should be more collegial

The chairperson of the governors of the Anglican Centre in Rome, Bishop Stephen Platten, has invited the Roman Catholic Church to use its authority in a more collegial way, and to allow more freedom of expression in theological dialogue.

'Catholics says Anglicans do not have a clear enough structure on authority, and I agree that there are areas it ought to be better.

"Many Anglicans would be pleased to have a central figure - just like the Pope -- in the church, but they want its role to be more collegial also.'
