The Ordinariate is also comprised of laity who agree with teh theologicalposition taken by teh clergy. In a modern Parliamentary democracy this is compatible with serving the head of state and working in the state as allowed to organisations within teh RomanCatholic church such as the Catholic police Guild and others across society.
'Man does not live in bread alone' but in supporting one another outside of teh Eucharist might be an apt summary rather than the brutal rendering untoCeasar quote from the Gospels.

Ordinariate as the new orthodox?
The ordinariate can be viewed as an attempt at Western Orthodoxy as some of its clergy if married have wives who aid in the life of the church. However unlike Eastern churhches they are not ordained clergy as such in their roles (though may be / have been readers or deacons within the Church of England).
The Orthodox churches within the Uk use Eatsern rite in English and Greek, Russian and other vernacular tongues.
As such those who remain within the CofE and have married female 'clergy' or are in Orthodox chruches may be closer to that within traditional frameworks of the early church in the time of Paul to the council of Nicea.

The answer to the blogs title in summary
The Ordinariate is a structure within the Roman Catholic church that allows Anglicans who oppose women in the episcopate and as clergy to hold services from the Roman Missal and Anglican orders of service.
It was devised and approved by the Roman Catholic Church of England and Wales with consultation to the papacy.
Its origins are in the Forward in Faith and Cursillo groups within the Church of England amongst others. A mass reading sheet that some use is teh Redemptorist Mass sheet derived from teh Jerusalem (and now New Jerusalem) Bible. Other bibles that are used include the Authoirsed or King James Bible.
The use of the Roman Missal has occurred in some CofE churches since teh 1970s following on from Vatican II and teh translation of the Vulgate into the vernacular.
