medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Please excuse a slightly odd contribution to this thread. The
Anglican Church in Canada preserved the custom of having the bishop
knock on the door of a newly consecrated church--at least 30 years
ago. I vividly remember the Bishop of Calgary, a very strong, large
man who knocked so enthusiastically on the door of a new church in
the suburbs that his staff went right through the door!
