Yes.....I know a number who are "orthodox" so "generic" would be a good
term. ;)

So do I. One of the problems with the reformation was than in an effort
to rid themselves of the Roman church, which granted had become corrupt,
they threw out the baby with the bathwater. Thus, there IS, IN FACT, a
great deal of liturgy carried from the VERY early church into the
Catholic, and Eastern/Western Orthodox AND Anglican as it once was in
England and is now in other parts of the world. I wish I knew a great
deal more about this period of history, but I don't.....I find it all
very interesting.
