I love the way you hate me.

Every girl I know that does CF has self esteem issues so probably a target rich environment.
You traitor!
That's mostly right- the few exceptions are churches that are actually older than the Episcopal Church/USA. I actually serve one of those right now (founded in 1753), and though we call ourselves an Episcopal Church, I've seen some that have kept the more "traditional" Anglican nomenclature.
Tough to argue when Bach was a Lutheran.
Some of the English hymns we sing are just horrible. I mean they musically make no sense. It's almost like the head music writer for the Anglican Church is Phillip Glass.
I'm sure some of it has to do with our Rector's dislike of Christmas music and having to dig through the collection to find other stuff. But, there's no bad Lutheran music.
While it's not bad advice, it reflects a very consumeristic approach to faith. It's a place where American society has crept into American Christendom and, in my opinion, infected it. Worship isn't about us, it's about God- so I wouldn't suggest looking for a place that you like, but rather a place that allows you to worship most fully. And I think that takes a blend of comfort and being challenged. A church that is all comfortable won't lead to growth, and a church that is all challenging won't lead to being nurtured in faith, you need both. I tend to think the Episcopal Church does that well- but it really depends on the priest and ethos of the particular congregation.
