Kyle,

You got me, I was raised a "small c" catholic (Episcopalian), and part of
that liturgy, quoting John 14:6, says "No one comes to the father except
through me," yet most Episcopal churches are named for saints.  As for your
other questions, I'd like to forward your email to my brother who's in his
last year at an Episcopal seminary to get his take on them.

Can't remember the last time we actually talked about CP, except as part of
a larger subject!

An unreasonable man (but my wife says that's redundant!)

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one
persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress
depends on the unreasonable man.

-George Bernard Shaw 1856-1950
