Anglican Communion is an association of these churches in full communion with the Church of England (which may be regarded as the mother church of the worldwide communion) and specifically with its principal primate, the Archbishop of Canterbury. The status of full communion means, ideally, that there is mutual agreement on essential doctrines, and that full participation in the sacramental life of each national church is available to all communicant Anglicans.

as far as I know. the is not totally catholic.. there are many very similar to a protestant church and.. some of them allowed homosexuality.. so why is this a big issue in the anglican church?
and the issue why do they try to imitate? because many and bishops dress like a catholic roman bishop or priest. as well their churches are similar to catholic parishes.. with names of saints..
