The AP writer evidently didn't read the actual 2007 document, which states "these separated churches and Communities ...are deprived neither of significance nor importance in the mystery of salvation. In fact the Spirit of Christ has not refrained from using them as instruments of salvation."

The only way you could make it into the anti-Protestant document the AP claims it is, is by deleting the "neither," "nor," and "not," thus making it the exact opposite of what the statement actually said.

It would be a welcome gesture, Rnmomof7, if you could relay this useful information to brothers and sisters who have been needlessly offended.

Thank you.

Seems like a reasonable and responsible thing to do, especially since the error was repeated in the first post and a ping list was used in the second post of this thread.
