Plus the fact that just because ashes are "smeared" on men, women, children and any validly baptized non-Catholics doesn't commit us to an obligation of ordination.
My point was that this Catholic church basically gave encouragement to the more liberal elements of the local Baptist community. How would you feel if Baptists celebrated and encouraged liberal Catholics?
And btw, I do not subscribe to sola scriptura. The problem is that too many Catholics think they have to prove they aren't sola scriptura heretics by subjecting the Bible to scientific higher criticism and insisting that the "old testament" isn't "literal history." I don't see too many Catholics saying this about the "new testament."
Let me know if you ever get to the point where you can tell the difference between sola scriptura and Biblical literalism. They're two different things, despite what you've been taught.
