Do Anglicans create saints?? - I have never heard of that - what's your source?--Doc Glasgow 18:42, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- There isn't formal canonization, but the CoE celebrates the old saints and has celebrations of lives since the split. However, I'm not clear either. I created the article because his was a red link in the List of saints article, and I got the information from the print Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church. They didn't give him the saintly title, and I had nothing, really, except his presence on the List article to suggest that there was a canonization of any sort. I certainly have no trouble with removing that sentence. I will reword the sentence now and await clarification. Geogre 04:05, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Where is the evidence that Selwyn was a tutor to him? C M Yonge's biography mentions that the families knew each other, that both were Etonians and recounts sermons in 1841 by Selwyn and Wilberforce that inspired him to become a Missionary. He was at Eton from 1838 to 1845. In 1841 Selwyn was a curate at Windsor. (all from CMY's biography of JCP)--BrianTaylor 13:00, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
