Why is Cedd listed as a "Roman Catholic" missionary/bishop? The article itself surely makes it clear that he was never happy with his return to the Roman tradition, and he is an important figure in the Celtic tradition of the north of England. Hackloon 00:27, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Although I wrote this stub I did not clasify it. I will point out that Cedd did not "return" to the Roman tradition. He did however adopt the Roman tradition after Whitby. He was sent as a missonary bishop to Mercia, though this predated Whitby according to Bede. Joe Dixon (13.4.2006}

Cedd was a Bishop of the universal church. He had died before the split between east and west in 671. pw123
