To the Orthodox, that is a distinction without a difference (I hope you realize).
“To the Orthodox, that is a distinction without a difference (I hope you realize).”
Truth be told, the only place where such a distinction makes a difference to the Orthodox is in Lebanon with the Maronites and most especially with the Melkites. So called “Byzantine Catholics” to us are nothing more than Latins performing the Divine Liturgy of +John Chrysostomos, for which they are to be commended but which does not make them, in our eyes, sui juris churches.
BTW, using the word “united” is tip off to us. Melkites, for example, would never say that their bishops are “united” with Rome; in communion yes, but “united with” the Church of Rome? Never.
