Going back to Francis or Erasmus in the RCC is like going back to Elden Hall in the 60's.
But as for the uniform, even the public schools are going that way through elementary and even middle school.

I think that we can find examples within most Christian groups that fit the mold in some way. It is the extremes to which some go on so many of the items that colors it differently.

And I understand your experience with the RCC. But are you just focused on what you took exception with and not the whole? I realize that someone could say the same thing about the LRC, but I find the line to be rather high and the RCC may be under (even if not for lack of trying) it while the LRC is over.
