My gut feeling is reunification would be great! Orthodox seems so much more traditional and respectful of the Mass. Curious as to what other freepers think?

Lots of issues. Read about their positions on birth control and apparitions of Mary, for starters.

I would like to see reunification but like the post after yours states there are lots of issues. If Francis is profoundly liberal, fat chance of reunification besides all the rest.

As a Latin Rite (”Roman”) Catholic, I would have concerns about the fate of the Eastern Catholic Churches; most were formed as a means of addressing the original schism, and I’d be reluctant to leave them at the mercy of the larger Orthocox Churches. If the reunification is real, I guess it wouldn’t be an issue.

Of course, reunification would be absolutely great, but now the question is who will lead that union? There cannot be two Popes.

Very little disagreement in basic theology.
