I believe when I had written that you had not yet written the well take the firstone you mention bit If I was mistaken I apologize By silent I certainly did not intend to imply that you were refusing anything simply that you had chosen not to comment on that bit So as for Gremiale The article mentions particular liturgical books of the Roman rite but that does not mean that the use of the articles is specific to that rite simply that the article was copied from the Catholic Encyclopedia and received little attention since The question it seems to me is whether gremiales are specifically a RCC vestment and as it happens they are not Their use is not an example of following the RC liturgy it s an example of some bishops and priests not wanting to get their vestments dirty
