A document from '08 just published this past week. This document is linked to in THIS thread but I think it really deserves to see the light of day and have its own thread in light of some of the drive-by, historical revisionist tripe which has been posted on FR recently.

Catholics and Orthodox agree that, from apostolic times, the Church of Rome has been recognised as the first among the local Churches, both in the East and in the West.
First among equals, yes.
First in authority, no. Christ specifically told them that no one of them had authority over the others.
