(I haven't gone full RCIA yet, but I do have a very healthy respect for the Church Fathers, largely because of my Swedenborg studies. Something about Catholic culture rubs me the wrong way; although they do have the best visual art. Methodists have the best hymns, thank you very much John Wesley. My lack of commitment is a personal problem of mine and not a doctrinal one. Always been a bit of a square peg.)

Are you saying that there are no black swans!?!?!

Yup.  See what I mean?  (I know you don't, lol... Wink )

Methodists, the best hymns?  Dude......you need to go to a Black Southern Baptist service (it;s where lapsed catholics go when they don;t want to feel guilty but can;t sit through the boringness).  Tell me who's that writin!

Yeaaaah...can't do the gospel thing...must be some lingering Presbyterian stodginess. I mean they're DANCING! in church. How can that be!?!
