There are no heresies in the Catholic Church -- the Catholic and Orthodox Churchs are no longer in schism, and consider each other Apostolic, hence neither considers the other heretical (though they don't agree on certain matters). Hence, if you consider the Catholic Church heretical, you consider the Orthodox to be the same and those two ARE the Church.

I have to know just what it is YOU are smoking....
The Orthodox & Catholics, are and have been in schism since 1054 AD. Until The Latins remove the filioque, and the other heretical inovations added since the 7th Ecumenical Council, then there will continue to be Schism. If you are aluding to the symbolic removal of the anathems in 1968, well, the Pope can do what he wishes for his own church, but the Ecumenical Patriarch doesn't have the authority to do the same. Those Anethemas were placed by ALL of the Orthodox Patriarchs, and they TOGETHER are the only ones who can remove them. That "dog isn't gonna hunt" as we say in Texas.......(not likely to happen)
