Nonsense. I have been to dozens of Catholic churches in the LA area and have never seen such blatant political advocacy. And most Catholic churches at least have a spiritual environment even if some have liberal priests and congregations.

Is not the Episcopal Church a part of the Anglican communion?

I grant you that the episcopal church you describe sounds extra outre, but you are in the land of Mahoney my FRiend, and the Catholic parishes are far too liberal, far too into emulating All Saints.

I just got a message from the rector of a church I attend calling the Apostolic Constitution “opportunistic unholy poaching” and “fishing for disgruntled Anglicans.”

p.s. THe Anglican Communion is not a church as such, but a loose confederation of different national churches. With The Episcopal Church, each bishop is supreme in his own diocese - he does not report to the presiding bishop. The national church would be more like the USCCB than like the Vatican.

You’ve been to DOZENS of churches in the archdiocese? Suddenly that hit me that’s a LOT of churches, and I’m a church hopper...

Perhaps a trade can be worked out.
