An excellent article and accurate observations. I have often made the remark on this forum that were our local Catholics to pick the church with whom they are closest to, it certainly wouldn't be us Orthodox!

And if you put an Orthodox Christian into services one of our local Catholic parishes and then put them into one of the Anglo-Catholic parishes that I attended back in my Anglican days, there is no question as to which one the Orthodox would say was closest to us...

God willing, some of that Gregorian chant talked about in this article will start to penetrate out into the land of the Oregon missalettes, which are truly excrable, both in language and music. And, if they could just go back to using the traditional English of the old St. Joseph's missal, then we'd really be getting somewhere...

Current company excepted? :-)
