“If the Holy Spirit led me to join the Catholic Church, it would be for that purpose.”

Your purpose would be to be disruptive? I sincerely doubt that the HS would lead you to disrupt a Latin Rite parish.

“And particularly, why do you suppose I conclude most of the posts with “To God be the glory?”

Because your spiritual forebears learned that from Greeks?

“We all have gifts of the Spirit.”

I don’t accept that at all. That’s universalism of one form or another.

“And mine is to encourage other believers”

Encourage them to do what? Believe as you do? Reject the teachings of The Church as you indicated you would in a Latin Rite Church? Would you encourage them to believe whatever innovative notion they might believe the HS puts in their head? Would you encourage Episcopalians to follow the guidance of a spirit of some sort, which they sincerely believe to be the Holy Spirit, which is “doing a new thing”?
