IMHO,since God uses His creature to build up the Church through the ages ,it seems to me that this would have to include the triune nature of God guiding that process through human nature

Often we discover that we believe the same thing but our vocabulriy doesn't.

That said,I will refrain from arguing an over 1000 year old problem between us and Pray for complete unity for the leaders of both sides to figure out.

Me too. But we must point to our disagreements, remembering that they are "in-house," and that the path towards full unity will be full of such.

I suppose you're right, and I certainly trust we can do it with respect for each other

Past my bedtime though.

I wish you and your family a blessed evening!

I pray for full union in my lifetime; I think that we have the path as clear as it ever has been and that we have a Pope that will take the West back to what it has lost, jettisoned or minimized. The obstacles are fewer now than there has been over the last millennium. It is both important and urgent, given the state of the world and the militancy of the Muslims.

Vienna is happening again right now and the lazy and stupid West either does not know or care about the ramifications.
