What is frequently discussed on this site are the moral infractions by, and the heresy and implicit (where it is not explicit) apostasy of the majority of the leadership of TEC. And that is the reason I formally separated myself from TEC in September 2008 and sought reception into the faithful and true Church of Christ, being received into the Catholic Church this past Pentecost Sunday. (<b><i>N.B.</i></b>, Please do not take my last sentence above as an assertion that the Catholic Church is the only part of the Body of Christ that is true and faithful. I merely assert that the fullness of the truth of Christ subsists in the Catholic Church, which is <i>not necessarily the case</i> with all ecclesial communities which call themselves Christian.)<br /><br />Pax et bonum,<br />Keith TöpferMartial Artisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11679584221923893460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-759178030677978044.post-40500447032419277012010-10-01T04:33:05.056-07:002010-10-01T04:33:05.056-07:00Keith Topfer,

Her disregard of fairly simple canon law is also breathtaking.<br /><br />The appropriate response to such usurpation of authority could not be less than the ecclesiastical equivalent of the death penalty.
