Christopher, you are probably right. Regarding “entrenched interests and protected privileges” I was thinking of the divisions within Orthodoxy. (Once again, I should have been more clear.)
]]>Interesting Chrys, I tend to think joint ventures tends to clarify what the differences are. While it will always aid understanding, it lets the “average” laymen appreciate the theological differences in a way he never did before and thus reinforcing the good reasons why communion does not exist.
Of course, I don’t think communion between the RC and Orthodox does not exist because of “entrenched interests and protected privileges of those at the top”. On the contrary if they thought they could get away with it I think they would rush headlong into a false communion.
