and your equation of baggage to ‘issues with non-Catholic brethren’ would seem to cut both ways, would it not?

YES.

I'm irritated when non-Catholics bring up some schtick from the 1700s to beat me over the head today -- I can toss muck from the 1800s too if they want, but it gets us nowhere.

the tossing of baggage needs to be on both sides

The problem was that no one was willing to make the first move

The greatness of Pope JP II and Pope Benedict was that they were brave enough to do it and the rewards especially in terms of closer relationship with the Orthodox has been wonderful
