“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.
That's poppycock! If today's Eos still deny the primacy of Peter, they are themselves, schismatic. There's no two ways about it.
The above faulty logic that you cite can also be applied to the Anglicans; after all, it was their Catholic ancestors who became heretics. Why blame the sins of the their fathers on them, even though they persist in their heresy?
And lets take that faulty logic you quote one step farther: Why should anyone be burdened with Adam and Eve's original sin?
For the third time, you don't know what you're talking about. You sources prove it.
And just WHAT would constitute one of these??
