Okay, so what’s the difference between i tags, and em tags for italics?

I happened to use blogger’s formatting button to italicize the quote in my last post, and it used em instead of i in the html.

In a new article at Meshereth Magazine, Rich Lusk says something I found to be rather profound, or, i not profound, at least quite interesting…

“Moreover, anti-paedocommunionists also have a different view of the Lord�s Supper. Their view insists that adult-like, rational understanding of the meal is essential to receiving its benefits (though apparently not its curses).“

Isn’t it strange that the Supper is commonly seen as ex opere operato in regards to the curses, but the blessings having nothing to do with the actual acts of eating the bread and drinking the wine? I made a very similar point some time ago on the Theologia/Biblical Horizons Forums.
