That's yet to be demonstrated.
It’s total nonsense to pretend that there is no disagreement, hard feelings, or animosity between the two groups.
I agree it's nonsense to pretend. So, what's the major disagreement?
I heard it from both sides.
Heard what?
When all else fails, accuse the other person of making stuff up. A typical Catholic’s tactic of last resort.
Roman Catholics didn’t consider them *real* Catholics. Borderline, sort of maybe, but pretty iffy about getting in. Better than Orthodox or Protestants however.
Ukrainian Catholics rightly perceived the spiritual snobbery of the Roman Catholics who looked down their noses at them as being not quite good enough.
Hardly unity within Catholicism.
Thanks, daniel, for the information provided on Ukrainian Catholicism.
I think we are seeing evidence of a persecution complex. Now the stories of Catholics not being nice and not allowing just anyone to rewrite the Catechism are being projected to the entire billion plus Catholics not being nice to the five million Ukrainian Catholics. I think the real story is you have to be likable to be liked.
