I never said it was _true_! Just that, for the purposes of _this_selector_, and braodly speaking EO and RC are close enough to be equivalent.

Indeed. The questionnaire didn't pick any questions that would tip the scales in favour of one over the other, as far as I can see. (An obvious one, I think, would be papal supremacy; or role of the Pope in the general Church. A question like that wasn't there.) Were the selector more "in depth", then I'd say EO =/= RC. I can also see why the selector is the way it is: it's not designed to pick apart two admittedly close sects - it's all about sorting an individual by broad trends. Padraic.
