Interesting link regarding the Orthodox perception of the Bishop of Rome:
http://www.thechristianactivist.com/Vol%207/V7F2000.htm
"Orthodox patriarchs, bishops, priests, and theologians — all you who actively pursue a policy of rapprochement with Rome: Beware. You are trying to bring the Orthodox Church into a lion’s den of unbelievable malignancy. You cannot save the Catholic Church; but the Catholic Church can and will contaminate and then destroy you."
That's as far as I got. From other people on this forum, I am happy to learn that all Orthodoxy doesn't feel this way. Perhaps despite people such as yourself and the priest of your article, we will be united. Rather than continue in your polemics, perhaps you should look to the FACT that we are more alike in beliefs than you think.
I have read other Orthodox articles, and they have a different view on Rome. We Catholics can only hope that you and your views represent the minority of Christian Orthodoxy. The Spirit is not a Spirit of dissension

In great haste because I am at the office and will respond to the dialog between you and Jo Kus at length this evening. I will make, however, two observations. First, you should hesitate long before applying the terms heretic or heresy to the Roman Church. Second, The Christian Activist is the worst sort of dead fish wrapper that was ever written. It is a nativist rag of the first order. If that tripe wrap told me it was Tuesday, I'd check the calendar!!!!!
