I didn't evade answering a question? Please point out where I did and maybe I can clarify for you.
It looks like a thousand years hasn't sufficed to reconcile the differences.
True.
What's it going to take? Another thousand?
Maybe. It will take what it takes.
But the point you keep skirting is that the belief of Catholics is much closer to that of the Orthodox than is Protestant belief. Someday, maybe the Protestants will understand this and stop claiming how they are so close to Orthodox Church belief.
You folks will be united ... under the antichrist. Is Chrislam creeping over the horizon with your pope?
