Yeah, I'll fully admit to being a liturgy monkey. I love the liturgy of the Episcopal Church, and while the ELCA is similar in some aspects, the Episcopal Church has (at least to me) a much fuller sense of the Eucharist. That isn't to say, of course, that the ELCA is wrong, but merely different. I happen to be more affected by a high church atmosphere, I think. Smells and bells, baby.

It's part of the reason I continue my relationship with Christ within the bounds of this denomination.
