Episcopal Marian Theology?

I am just curious to know what the official church stances are on some questions. If I am not mistaken, there are differing oppinions on many issues within the Episcopal church and I am welcome to have my own beliefs on the subject, but I would still like to know.

Immaculate conception?

Ever Virgin?

Assumption?

Queen of Heaven?

New Eve?

I suppose I am more concerned with the first 2 as I do not believe as the Roman Catholics do. It is something I have read scripture, read differing oppinions on, and prayed extensively for God to reveal the truth to me on when I was considering joining the RC Church and my beliefs on it have not changed.

    While I am no expert on this subject by any means, I see that no one else has answered your question thus far. Therefore, I'll say this: Probably the only Anglicans/Episcopalians that believe those things listed are some "Anglo-Catholics" (e.g. such as at St Clement's church in Philadelphia, PA).... and I'd venture to say that they'd answer "yes, we believe" to all of the above issues/questions. These people pray the Rosary before "Mass" and have devotions to Mary, etc.
