Monks of Jesus Christ and an apologetic bus driver

@Mr. Slant

Only on the Dope would “apologetic” generate a hijack that includes an argument about CS Lewis’ denomination.

Without the hijack turning apoplectic.

I love this place.

Ditto.

This sect must have some pretty interesting rituals. Maybe you should attend a meeting?

I’m pretty sure that’s a typo, and they meant to say “message”.

I think you’re right, but I don’t think Rhythmdvl knows. And I didn’t want to hurt his/her feelings.

Lewis was a generaly Christian apologist, not a specifically Catholic one. Lewis was C. of E., not R.C.

Except of course the C. of E. is a Catholic church .

It’s tricky venturing into this thread (though I do know what apoplectic means .

However the Church of England is Protestant, the current UK Monarch becomes Head of that Church … and no UK Monarch can marry a Catholic, or expect allegiance if they are Catholic themselves.

The Church of England, and the other Anglican churches around the world, are both Protestant and Catholic. Not all Catholics come from Rome!

The Church of England is not Protestant. Never was. I dare you to tell Henry the VIIIth that :D. Indeed, I would take issue with Skammer’s characterization that it’s both…although that’s closer, I’ll admit it does get associated. And the Monarch cannot marry a ROMAN Catholic (of course, as they’re just faking as the C of E is the only true Catholic church ).
