You still haven’t explained your “essentially schismatic” accusation. Are the Eastern Orthodox “schismatic” or “essentially schismatic”?
“You still haven’t explained your “essentially schismatic” accusation.”
I don’t have to. It’s obvious to any intelligent Catholic.
“Are the Eastern Orthodox “schismatic” or “essentially schismatic”?”
According to the Catholic Church, neither, unless they commit an actual act of schism. Most EOs are born into families which have been EO for generations so the term “schismatic” is not applied to them by the Catholic Church.
