[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Those of you saying it's all the same need to read up on transubstantiation.  That and the authority of Rome are my issues, and non-negotiable.  DH knew this.

Most RCs don't have a clue about transubstantiation? Some who might, don't really even think about it.

As far as the authority of Rome ....... give me a break! Every Pope has said that practising any artificial form of birth control is a sin yet the vast majority of RCs in the US and much of the Western world ignore that dicturm.

It's one thing to discount a particular aspect of a religion when you've been born into it. But it's a much more difficult thing to do if you are thinking of adopting that religion as your own. That's one reason many converts to Islam are very fundamentalist/conservative.   My Muslim born husband is fine with saying "bismillah" over his food and considering it halal. Many converts to islam will eat nothing but meat bought at a halal butcher shop. It's just harder to pick and choose when you start outside a particular religion.

Religion is such a personal thing. Nobody should ever be pressured to change. It's about your own personal relationship with God most of all, and with other adherents. [/quote]
