Thanks for the link. That was pretty entertaining. I personally don't think this whole ordeal is a big (or?)deal. :) Aside from having to tip-toe in heaven so the Catholics don't know I'm there, I think it has little impact on any person-of-faith's life. But then again, judging from the amount of traffic this blog post, and the similar post at my other blog, have generated... I'm seeing a lot of google hits on the subject, so it must still be a flash-point.
As to apostolic succession, I rest in Hebrews...
Heb 3:1 Therefore, holy brothers, you who share in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession,
Heb 3:2 who was faithful to him who appointed him, just as Moses also was faithful in all God’s house.
Jesus Christ is the only apostolic succession any of us need. I defy anyone to succeed Him.
It is so very good to see that you dropped in. I was excited to find your blog, and I hope to see you adding input of such obvious worth here as much as you are able to.
I'll definitely "see" you over there, and hope to see you here often.
I hadn't seen that
