The Code of Canon Law Governs All Catholic Churches

Converting to an eastern catholic churcho respect your own tradition. The code of canon law, which governs all churches, now has one for the eastern churches and one for the western churches. Both have the same canons when it comes to changing ritual churches. As is, the churchis very neutral on it. So there's nothing that the official church has which tells you that you you were born into this group, therefore your spirituality is pigeon holed.
