"The idea that somehow all the churches make up a Body of Christ in a physical sence, and are akin to our body parts is insane! Compating churches to eyes, finger and hands of one and the same body...no, I am sorry."
Which is why I said the Churches in communion with each other Mystically make up the Body of Christ.
Kolo, I know what you meant, and you are right of course -- because you qualified it with the Mystery that God always is. I was referring to the Catholic idea that views the Body of Christ as a "sum of its parts" which seems preposterous to me from a theological point of view of a transcendental God. :-)
