Then you agree with me that giving the remains of the great Church fathers to the schismatic Greek Orthodox is just wrong - and for so many reasons.
As someone else pointed out, the Vatican also has supported the official Commie church in Red China, as the Chicoms simultaneously persecute real Catholics, as they persecute various other 'unsanctioned' organizations.

If you remember, there were MUTUAL excommunications between the East and West - "for so many reasons" - one of which was the theft of relics and holy things by the West - and, of course, the desecration of Santa Sophia. But, you are aware of these things, aren't you?As someone else pointed out, the Vatican also has supported the official Commie church in Red China, as the Chicoms simultaneously persecute real Catholics, as they persecute various other 'unsanctioned' organizations.
I think you are "putting words into the mouth" of that poster re the Chinese! Shame on you. The Church has had to "live with" the State from her inception. Sometimes, She has fared very badly; sometimes She has become dominant. Whatever the circumstances - She HAS survived, and will survive until the end of time. That doesn't mean that She will survive in the United States of America, or in Canada, etc.; but She will still survive the attacks of Communists, Anarchists, Protestants and Integrists!
