You wrote: "'come one come all "Eucharistic Hospitality sessions' Certainly this is not a practice of the Catholic Church." How come I, a known non-Catholic, was invited to one and invited to receive the sacrament? We all know these have been going on. It's positively notorious. Why deny it? I thought the NO people were proud of it.
I guess it's like you've always told me about the variety of "Orthodox" practices that don't agree: when someone does something they're not supposed to, they're doing it on their own authority, illicitly and in contradiction to the canon law and liturgical theology of the official Church. If that's true with the Orthodox - a gazillion different national churches, synods, and jurisdictions - how much more so for us Roman Catholics who have one Pope who, in the end, is Supreme Legislator?
Not being a Latinist, I'll pass on Genetrix.

I think you are referring to another discussion with another person posting at FR. But, since you here bring it up, I would obviously agree - in theory. In practice, I have not encountered any such practices. I have heard, however, of some heterodox rites being "baptized", so to speak, but only after they have been cleaned up by having certain obviously heretical parts removed, e.g. the filioque heresy in the Nicene Creed. None of that, however, comes even close to the kind of idiocy going in the NO version of the Roman Catholic Church.
