[Cronos]

If we can work out the role of papal primacy to everyone's satisfaction, then it is clear that the Pope can call an Ecumenical Council to which both sides of the Church will respond

True -- I can see that the role of the papacy vis-a-vis the other Patriarchs is returning to the way it was for the 7 Churches. Perhaps once that it done, a Council to examine the differences within the Church can be held.

As long as we understand that our theological differences may not be true theological errors but theologumena within the bounds of Tradition, we can look forward to a true, spiritual re-union, and communion.

I hope so too, but I also think that it would take a lot of time -- but why not? We've progressed quite far in 50 years and if it takes another 50 years or more, let God's will be done.

Time is not a factor in a timless Church. :-)
