“While dismissing the Lutherans’ and Calvinists’ communities as “non-churches” and its ministers as effectively impostors, the Vatican’s doctrinal “ministry” reiterates the view that the Orthodox do have a church worthy of the name and a priesthood it feels administers valid sacraments”

Will the real non-churches please stand up?

The Catholic and Orthodox churches are two branches of one original limb. The protestant churches have broken away from the tree altogether. And churches that have a history of denouncing the Pope as the Whore of Babylon and the Antichrist don’t have much to be offended about.
