Interesting. The picture is not of +Tichon nor is he the “head” of the “...diocese for Central and Western Europe of the Patriarchate of Bulgaria”. Met. Simeon is.

Maybe Rome ought to just simmer down a bit before there is a real, worldwide Orthodox backlash against it.

Bishop Tichon was appointed Administrating Bishop of the Bulgarian Eastern Orthodox Diocese in Western and Central Europe on July 29, 2009. Metropolitan Simeon withdrew from the management of the diocese because of deteriorating health and currently lives in in Phoenix, Arizona.

LOL........you mean like the Orthodox will really get mad at us, now?

Like the previous millenium was just pretend?

It's a good time, Kolo. First millenium together, second millenium apart, third millenium together........

Give it some thought......you know you want to....... :-)

All Benedict has to do is assume his historical role of “First among Equals” and it will all come together.

Oh, but for that little contingency, eh?
