I do appreciate your tone and I admire your devotion.

Thank you, I am honored and appreciate that very much. God bless you.

Of course, I reject that Peter was made head of the church and that that of the Papacy but other than that, we have much in common.

I understand -- of course, otherwise you would be Catholic! ;)

But if you ever change your mind, of course I will welcome you with big open arms and say "Welcome Home!"

May the Lord be with you.

May the Lord bless you, too, and we'd welcome you into the LCMS. :)

I have family that are Catholic and consider them fellow Christians. I have kinder feelings about the Catholic church than the ELCA where I also have family.

I find nothing good about the ELCA.
