===Latitudinarianism in Anglicanism===
[[Latitudinarianism]] was initially a pejorative term applied to a group of 17th-century English theologians who believed in conforming to official [[Church of England]] practices, but who felt that matters of [[doctrine]], [[liturgical]] practice, and [[ecclesiastical]] organization were of relatively little importance. Good examples of the latitudinarian philosophy were found among the [[Cambridge Platonists]]. The latitudinarian Anglicans of that period built on [[Richard Hooker (theologian)|Richard Hooker]]'s position in ''[[Of the Laws of Ecclesiastical Polity]]'', which states God cares about the moral state of the individual soul and that matters such as church leadership are "things indifferent". However, they took the position far beyond Hooker's own and extended it to doctrinal matters.
