I think it is high time the Eastern and Western Churches unified. We are all brothers in Christ.

We've been moving closer -- had a number of lively debates with Kosta and Kolokotronis (btw tronis -- why bullet in the ***)?

No doubt the good will of the Pope and the close relationship with the Ecumenical Patriarch have made strides. What is most remarkable is that, despitre our differences, we now realize and treat each other as part of the same family, and that is significant and profitable.

"... (btw tronis -- why bullet in the ***)?"

The story is that one of the anscestors of Theodoros Kolokotronis was shot there in some sort of battle and of course he bled. He was embarassed and so sat on a rock to hide the fact from his men! They found out anyway and gave him this name. It stuck.
