and took the prayer of Consecration out of it What nonsense are you talking about now? I'm sure this has to do with the Epiklesis (which is not necessary for consecration, as St. John Chrysostom can teach you if you ever want to read his Homilies, but that's another subject). Are you going to start in now telling me I didn't hear an Epiklesis all those times I've been to Byzantine or Ukranian Catholic Liturgies? So I'm to believe you, and not my own two eyes and ears? Come on!
