Christopher Johnson commented on Christopher Johnson's blog post Why I'm a mama's boy"First off the Episcopal Church is a big tent Church that houses an Evangelical and a Catholic wing.

Br. Cletus commented on Christopher Johnson's blog post Why I'm a mama's boy"I'm not all that hip on theology of Mary, but it seems the low church stuff is less Marian.
