Perhaps this tiff between Moscow and Constantinople is the God-given occasion to reconsider all the polemical
argumentation that we have used to justify and to maintain the Schism of 1054. Perhaps now is the time to
realize that where all of us-on all sides of the disputes-have stood and continue to stand is not entirely on the
fullness of catholic truth.
Perhaps now is the time to fall down on our knees and mutually ask forgiveness of each other-Romans, Greeks,
Slavs, Arabs, Muscovites, Constantinopolitans, "converts," all of us! And maybe when we rise up again we will
find ourselves at a most peculiar place-at the same Eucharistic Chalice.
