[Vicomte13]

I wonder what God thinks of all of this.
Our squabbling over dogmas and rites doesn't amount to a hill of beans if God feels more vexed by it than glorified.

My friend, I am with you. The faith our Lord gave us in Flesh began to decay from the moment He left us. He knew that would happen, which is why He said narrow is the path, and few shall find it. But at least some of the children will be saved. Without Him, none of us.

I share your desire to unite and your views of our divded Church, but I just can't see it happening. I can say that the Orthodox would feel that they are betraying God by accepting something they know is not what the original Church professed. I am sure the Catholics feel that they would never be clean again if they accepted those who deny HMC's dogmas.

The Pope is the sheppard. Both churches know and recognize that. It is up to the First Bishop to lead and feed his sheep. That the Church is still divided is his cross. Only he can make us one again; we can't. He knows what is needed.

Blessings to you in hope that a miracle triumphs over reason.
