I’m assuming it’s generic but not chance anyone there supports Trump. The Cathedral is very inclusive as is the Episcopal faith |
A Cathedral is where the bishop’s chair is. Saint Matthew’s Cathedral is on Rhode Island Avenue, and is the seat of the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Washington. |
|
There are also 3 Orthodox Cathedrals in DC, St. Sophia which is Greek Orthodox, St Nicholas which is OCA, and St. John the Baptist which is Russian Orthodox.
|
There are also two Catholic cathedrals - the Cathedral of St Matthew and the Basilica of the National Shrine. |
While some Basilicas are Cathedrals, the one in DC is not as it is not the seat of a bishop. St Matthew is the seat of the archbishop of Washington. |

I attend the Basilica, but when someone says The Cathedral, I know which one they’re talking about.
Thanks for posting, OP. |
