LOL As always, informative and amusing. As for Sinkspur, I don't beleive he is a Deacon - purely judging by his posts. You and Thomas More are another matter. You two clearly are interested in the life of the soul.

As for those of sinkspur's ilk -deacons or not, these words are apt;

My sons, regard as enemies of the faith those who belittle the pope's authority or who try to minimize the obedience and respect due to his teachings and directives. [St. John Bosco]

"Although the design of the ecumenical movement envisions a goal of full, organic unity between the Anglican and Roman Catholic communions, and much energy and many resources have been devoted to a many-faceted dialogue to achieve this goal, all parties respect the individual decisions of conscience that may require some persons to “short-circuit” the slow path toward organic unity."

This guy has such a niggardly attitude to converts that I'm surprised he is getting any at all!!!

Since when has conversion to the ONE TRUE FAITH been a "short-circuit" of the "slow path toward organic unity"? This is total b######t - there is no path AT ALL to organic unity with the Anglicans.

They don't even have any notion of unity with themselves - which planet is this stupid ar##ho#e of an archbishop living on? Doesn't he even read Free Republic???
