Eastern Christian Supply—The Question of Union: A Forthright Discussion of the Possibility of Union of the Eastern Orthodox Church and Roman Catholicism

The Question of Union: A Forthright Discussion of the Possibility of Union of the Eastern Orthodox Church and Roman Catholicism

Second Edition

by Constantine Cavarnos
Translated by Hieromonk Patapios
With a Foreword by Archbishop Chrysostomos of Etna and a Preface by Photios Kontoglou

“Dr. Cavarnos[...]convincingly demonstrates that Orthodoxy and Roman Catholicism are not the same thing and that they cannot be one unless the Orthodox Church sacrifices its integrity or the Latin confession abandons its errors. The Truth of Orthodoxy, like the truth of science, cannot be reconciled to bogus theory and still remain what it is. Moreover, since the Orthodox Church has preserved unchanged the teachings and precepts of the Apostles, it would be wrong for Her to seek unity in falsehood. The imperative of love demands that She call the See of Rome back to its roots, back to the ‘undivided’ Church of the Seven Œcumenical Synods—back to that Church which has, in fact, never been and can never be divided.”
