Quote from DoubleMeatWhooper
Not at all. The necks don't get much redder than they are in Jena, LA, my current abode!
In the seminary, we studied various religions in our ecclesiastical history classes. Guess what we discovered: we have more in common with those of other faiths than we ever realised.
My quote: Oops! I forgot to select Quote first. O well. I'm sure I will do it again.
Red neck...well I know the boundary is down there somewhere in Louisiana and continues and continiues way up through Arkansas and into southern Mo. Arkansa is my native state. I understand it stretches over in to Mississipp this fiefdom called Redneckville.
I played for a funeral mass in a Catholic Church. English was not the priest's native tongue. I didn't realize until the homily that i really couldn't understand him. The high liturgy of Service with Holy Communion in Methodist Church is almost identical to the liturgy of the mass.
I made a comment on one of the posts about the middle ages and the church. It wasn't complimentary. However, it wasn't a slam against Catholicism but a repudiation of the attitudes toward homosexuality during that time period. The Anglican, Lutheran and Methodist Churches came out of the Catholic Church so before the Protestant Reformation. Our history is all the same. There wsa just one western church. It is Protestant heritage as well up until the Proestant Reformation.
I am just glad that most of the churches are now accepting of each other.
And Dignity. I am glad you have that organization. There is room at the altar for all humans. I for one have no intention of deciding who is welcome and who is not. My church even has a totally open Communion table. Baptism is not even required. All are invited.
