Via Media comes from Queen Elizabeth the First. She designed the Via Media to stop the warring and bloodshed between Catholics and Protestants in England. The same buildings, bishops, priests, monks, nuns and congregations tetered from Rome to England with the change of rulers in England. This middle road combined the best of the Roman Church and the Protestant reformation.
A good summation on what we should take with us after we leave church. Isn't "via media" the phrase used to indicate the middle way between catholic and protestant theologies?
Yes it is. "Via media" means "middle way" in Latin and is used by many Episcopalians/Anglicans to describe their theology, a middle ground between the two.

Doesn't "via media" often amount to "sitting on the fence"? We all know what Jesus said about lukewarm people...
