Demosthenes2 -

As usual, beautifully stated.

I think there is some assumption among people that if we can recognize a thing then it must be what we think it is.

While the acts of Episcopal Communion and Catholic Eucharist may look similar - even with using the same words in the respective rituals - they are different.

As a Catholic, I don't see one as better or worse than the other. Different is not a pejorative term.

Respecting differences is not about exclusion or inclusion or any other self-esteem issue. It is about respect.

Thanks for the great post.
