Best decision we ever made. Now my interest in this controversy is mostly academic (though laced with a tiny bit of nostalgia of an ugly kind . . . :-( )
I have a kindred spirit in "Mother" - seems we're leading parallel lives. One small exception, however...on my way to the Catholic Church, I had a short layover in a Continuing Anglican denomination (which shall remain nameless out of Christian charity). Best I can say is that it was better than remaining in that morass that is ECUSA, but the fundamental flaw in ECUSA is also a fundamental flaw in the Continuing churches. IMHO that flaw is the autonomous Bishop - answerable to no one - out of communion with everyone except his own flock - & equally prone to error (albeit of a different kind than ECUSA Bishops). If I had it to do again, I would skip the side trip into the Continuum & go straight to Rome (or one of the Orthodox Churches) & authentic catholicism.
