For sake of argument, and to not muddy the waters so much for the sake of our truly separated brethren, let's say this is a "perspective" thing! The real issue here is that the author claims that the Catholic Gospel is radically different from what he considers to be the "pure" one. To that extent, it can be surmised that he would also intend to lump in the Orthodox position, too. It is expedient for both lungs of apostolic succession to be united in this one, no?

“To that extent, it can be surmised that he would also intend to lump in the Orthodox position, too.”

Oh, at a minimum! If the author really knew about us Orthodox, he’d put put Rome on the good side of the ledger!

My problem is with comments from Latins which evince a pretty thorough going misunderstanding of the The Church which inevitably leads to further attacks not only on Rome but on the other particular churches as well. It may not be triumphalism, but it looks like it and it causes problems.
