***I've actually seen "good ecumenism." In my old parish, we had a Good Friday service (there is no Mass on Good Friday), in the main church, in which a number of denominations took place. We had Methodists, Episcopalians, Mormons, Baptists, etc. There was nothing in the service with which any group had a theological issue, so it worked.***

Just remove the Mass & the Pope and your ecumenism can be completed! (OK, the Mormon "we have the keys" and "living prophet" thing would need to go too.)

Yeah, but then, we'd be separated from the Sacraments, and would no longer be in an apostolic Church.

And, judging from some of the arguments I've seen between different groups of Protestants here, I"m guessing it'd take more than that to "fix things up." :-)
