Lots of words out there about Eileen McNamara's column today in the Boston Globe. The title says it all. This is it: "A catholic alternative"
Note that's a lower-case "c" meaning universal in a generic sense, not the Universal Church that is the mystical Body of Christ. Does the Body of Christ include other Christian faiths outside of Catholicism? The Church says it does. Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons excluded for obvious reasons. These folks below have said just about everything I think that can be said. I will add one thing. Christ said "Do this in memory of me" not "pick and choose what you are going to do in memory of me." Here are links to what our friends at other blogs are saying:
Fool's Folly
Ad Orientem
In Formation
Oh, one last thing - Christ did mention something about schismatics in His private revelations to St. Faustina. It wasn't favorable. At least that's what she said that He said. I'm going to have to look it up.
