"One thing you can't say about Romanides is that he was insipid."

Another FReeper, Annalex perhaps, noted that Romanides was certainly an ecumenist but hardly an irenicist! In all honesty, I posted the link because of the comments (which I share) about Meyendorff's theories. It didn't occur to me that it might seem like Catholic bashing. I certainly didn't mean that.

And I didn't mean to imply you were. If anyone in this discussion is supportive of Catholic-Orthodox rapprochement, it is you. Romanides was a sharp critic of Meyendorff's views, among other things. Actually, I find his criticism quite stimulating. I am glad to see that Orthodoxy has room for a good debate on an important issue.
