I think that letting Episcopalians into the Catholic Church, complete with married clergy, may well help to lead to married clergy in the Latin Rite. In regards to gay clergy, I hope that most of these new Catholics realize that an estimated 30-40% of Latin Rite Catholic priests (& bishops too) have a homosexual orientation. So they are not joining a church that is free of gay people.Mareczkuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13122584421854834046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27612445.post-64312674295286596482009-10-25T12:45:36.671-05:002009-10-25T12:45:36.671-05:00Mary Hunt should ask her questions serious of main...Mary Hunt should ask her questions serious of mainline Protestant denominations. Historically, Catholics are welcome to cross over, but "natives" very very frequently talk behind their back if they try to rearrange the furniture - metaphorically - in too Catholic a way. Of course, many ex-Catholics have done reaction-formation that makes them unlikely to do this, but the problem is frequent enough. I have testimony of many friends (Protestant and ex-Catholic) about their experiences in this regard.<br /><br />What indeed would it look like if mainline Protestant denominations offered a "Roman Use"? If they would complain about being asked to consider that, what might that tell us about how they see ecumenism? Maybe it would be revealing....Liamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27612445.post-19583343066610825202009-10-25T08:33:37.890-05:002009-10-25T08:33:37.890-05:00I'm all for a 2nd Reformation and a 3rd Vatica...I'm all for a 2nd Reformation and a 3rd Vatican Council!

Those who manage to keep their property are finding other, continuing Anglican jurisdictions to their liking more than the newly offered personal prelature (sic) from Rome.<br /><br />As for the Traditional Anglican Communion, do you suppose somebody has actually taken the time to inventory each individual part of that affiliative (and not legally corporate) body to see who has clear title to what dinky little building?<br /><br />Ms. Hunt should stick to what she knows: fomenting a 2nd Reformation and a 3rd Vatican Council.Mark Andrewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01258953474190833657noreply@blogger.com
