Was the link of dogs greeting their returning soldier humans here or in Bitches? I can't view it at work, and I want to send it home.

Or am I hallucinating that it was here at all?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Ah, you people with your seasons. We have one of those. It involves rain.

Have there been large splits in the Catholic church like in the SBC splitting off and the recent Episcopalian splinters? Because really? I could see a significant number of US Catholic churches splitting off. Every new member group to our church is mostly RCC leavers.

I haven't been in a while, but I remember my Unitarian Universalist congregation having a number of former Catholics, including at least one priest.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm not sure the Catholic Church has a mechanism for splitting. If you're not with the Vatican, they kind of tend to excommunicate you.

But Jesus asked God to forgive those who crucified him, even though, "They know not what they do."

But these people know exactly what they were doing.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

But don't they then go off to become their own church, and kinda thumb their nose at the Vatican? Anglican, Protestant, Episcopalian... right? This is not my strongest subject.

Well Anglican was a KING taking all the churches of his nation away, right? Not really the same as a bunch of individual churches getting together at whatever their version of General Assembly is (they have one right?) and stating issues with current church doctrine/decisions/whatnot. FTR all my knowledge of how churches run is from the Methodist church.

They don't really do that any more. At least, not that I'm aware of, though if there's a Catholic offshoot that also worships the Flying Spaghetti Monster, I'd consider it.
