My most recent contribution, where I argue that the Ukrainian autocephaly was a reaction to the war in the east of the country. I also explore reactions (or lack of them) of global Christianity to the Ukrainian war. The article is free to access and share.https://t.co/Ypd27m2bio

Byzantine Triumphalism
How much more do they have to lose before they learn the lesson? Lord have mercy. All jurisdictions will have to re-evaluate their notions of primacy and ecclesial authority before there can be full reconciliation. Matthew 20:25.

Adam DeVille on John Paul II
CWR: John Paul II: Diagnostician of Divisions, Doctor of Ecumenism by Dr. Adam A. J. DeVille
In the encyclical Ut Unim Sint, given twenty five years ago, the late pope wrote about “the necessary purification of past memories,” a consistent and urgent theme of his pontificate.
Deville uses both Taft and John Paul II for a discussion of the healing of memories. That certainly is a necessary part of reconciliation.
Whether what is going on in Ukraine is a helpful development or not remains to be seen. The jockeying between Moscow and Constantinople needs to end (and recognition of Roman primacy is not the quick solution that Latin polemicists would make it to be); this may require further humbling of both historic sees by God. There needs to be ecclesial reform happening in many churches, but not the changes that liberal progressives want.

Nevertheless, there are more recent and more hopeful signs. These have increased with Constantinople’s granting of autocephaly to the Ukrainian Orthodox Church last year. With Russia thereby losing control over much of Ukrainian Orthodoxy in 2019, the latter remains free to deepen the healing in its already amicable and often co-operative relationship with Ukrainian Catholics.

How Should Churches of an Ecclesial Rite Be Organized?
Under the leadership of one "patriarch"? Or should they be organized synodally with one protos? Or a different way entirely, or not at all?
If the Chalcedonian and non-Chalcedonian (or "Oriental") Orthodox ever reconcile, can the patriarch of Constantinople continue to make this claim about Constantinople being the Mother Church of the Orthodox world? It won't be true if that reconciliation happens.
Asia News: Bartholomew: Constantinople, the Mother Church of the Orthodox world by NAT da Polis
One year ago the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople granted autocephaly to the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. Metropolitan Makarios: the division from Moscow stems from the refusal to be subject to the political will of others and of not to being able to serve the Ukrainian people.
