I found this slightly interesting, piece for comment:

Those of us with sober mind will realise that the Roman Catholic Church adopted certain Reformation principles at Vatican II, notably the practice of having the liturgy in the vernacular. However, it appears that they are now going further at a parochial level at least.

Two very Protestant practices here:

1. fiddling with the Liturgy to suit your own ends (though this was originally a Catholic practice, dropped during the reformation and picked up by the CofE during the last 100 years)

2. Allow those other than the Ordained Minister to give the Sacrament to the Faithful, and if the image is to be believed they're letting women do it!
