I think you are right about those who can read the gospel during the Mass, but Catholics allow members of the Orthodox, Assyrian Church of the East, and Polish National Catholic Churches to receive Communion, although it is urged that members of those Churches respect the discipline of their particular faith. To my understanding the Orthodox do not allow their members to take Catholic Communion, and I’m not sure about the other two Churches.

The Epesp. priest was a WOMAN....

The Episcp. priest was a PRIESTESS...THAT should have nixed it.

This is a fairly stiff penalty for letting her read the Gospel

Have a church at my town that has a woman read the gospel AND say the homily during Sunday Evening Mass. Suffice to say I don't go there anymore.

I put in a reference to that in my very first version of the post but it made the priest look like a nut case ~ both priests BTW.

That's because so terribly many Episcopals don't really think the guys with the woman priests, or the homosexual bishops, are really Christians ~ actually, the Pope doesn't think they are either.
