Ritualism In The Church Of England
Ritualism, in the history of Christianity, refers to an emphasis on the rituals and liturgical ceremonies of the church. Specifically, the Christian ritual of Holy Communion. In the Anglican church in the 19th century, the role of ritual became a contentious matter. The debate over this topic was also associated with struggles between High Church and Low Church movements. Definition In Anglicanism, the term 'ritualist' is often used to describe the revival of second generation Oxford Movement/Anglo-Catholic/High Church which sought to reintroduce a range of Roman Catholic liturgical practices to the Church of England. Ritualism is also seen as a controversial term (i.e. rejected by some of those to whom it is applied). Common arguments Arguments about ritualism in the Church of England were often shaped by opposing (and often unannounced) attitudes towards the concept of ''sola scriptura'' and the nature of the authority of the Bible for Christians.

Horncastle
Horncastle is a town and civil parish in the East Lindsey district in Lincolnshire, east of Lincoln. Its population was 6,815 at the 2011 census and estimated at 7,123 in 2019. A section of the ancient Roman walls remains. History Romans Although fortified, Horncastle was not on any important Roman roads, which suggests that the River Bain was the principal route of access to it. Roman Horncastle has become known recently as ''Banovallum'' (i. e. Wall on the River Bain). Although this Roman name has been adopted by some local businesses and the town's secondary modern school, it is not firmly known to be original. ''Banovallum'' was merely suggested in the 19th century through an interpretation of the '' Ravenna Cosmography'', a 7th-century list of Roman towns and road-stations, and may equally have meant Caistor. The Roman walls remain in places. One section is on display in the town's library, which was built over the top of the wall. The Saxons called the town ''Hyrne ...

Census
A census is the procedure of systematically acquiring, recording and calculating information about the members of a given population. This term is used mostly in connection with national population and housing censuses; other common censuses include censuses of agriculture, traditional culture, business, supplies, and traffic censuses. The United Nations (UN) defines the essential features of population and housing censuses as "individual enumeration, universality within a defined territory, simultaneity and defined periodicity", and recommends that population censuses be taken at least every ten years. UN recommendations also cover census topics to be collected, official definitions, classifications and other useful information to co-ordinate international practices. The UN's Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), in turn, defines the census of agriculture as "a statistical operation for collecting, processing and disseminating data on the structure of agriculture, covering th ...

National School (England And Wales)
A National school was a school founded in 19th century England and Wales by the National Society for Promoting Religious Education. These schools provided elementary education, in accordance with the teaching of the Church of England, to the children of the poor. Together with the less numerous British schools of the British and Foreign School Society, they provided the first near-universal system of elementary education in England and Wales. The schools were eventually absorbed into the state system, either as fully state-run schools or as faith schools funded by the state. History Prior to 1800, education for poorer children was limited to isolated charity schools. In 1808 the Royal Lancastrian Society (later the British and Foreign School Society) was created to promote schools using the Monitorial System of Joseph Lancaster. The National Society was set up in 1811 to establish similar schools using the system of Dr Andrew Bell, but based on the teachings of the Church of ...
