But their peculiar ways of worship, puzzling and mysterious to most Latin-rite Catholics, can also instill a parochial insularism and fan the flames of best-forgotten feudal quarrels. Except for language and a few special artifacts, the Ruthenians and the Ukrainian-rite Catholics have an almost identical liturgy, but, says one Ruthenian priest, "no self-respecting Ruthenian would have a Ukrainian in his house...
