Analogia / The Pemptousia Journal for Theological Studies Bd.9 (ePub)

The beginning of the Roman Catholic/Orthodox Theological dialogue during the 20th century raised to some high hopes for an imminent canonical unity between the two Denominations, and this, though premature, is not of course to be blamed; it is impossible for any contemporary Christian theologian not to suffer from the division within this very womb of the ontological unification of all things, which is the Church of Christ-precisely because this division gives to many the impression of a fragmentation of the Church's very being and subsequently weakens her witness.
