OL II, June 1998, Washington , DC
"Ut Unum Sint" - That They All May Be One
Archbishop Peter of New York - "The
subject of universal primacy is very delicate. When you speak
about the problem of universal primatial authority in the
Church, you find very little material in the Orthodox tradition."
Bishop John Michael Botean - "The
one commandment of Jesus Christ is to Love one another as
I have loved you. Reading Ut Unum Sint then convinced me
to take the Holy Father very, very seriously when he says
that it is a matter of personal conversion."
Edward Cardinal Cassidy - "As
the title of the Encyclical indicates (Ut Unum Sint) the
Papal declaration is about the Church's commitment to ecumenism
... A constant feature of the present pontificate has been
the Holy Father's own personal commitment to the search for
Christian Unity."
Bishop Kallistos of Diokleia - "The
first thing that impresses me about the Encyclical Leter Ut Unum
Sint is the Pope's declared wish to open new doors, his eagerness
to discover a fresh approach to old problems."
