The Universal Catholic Church

[holdencaulfield]

The Orthodox position is that there is no communion outside of Orthodoxy. Any Orthodox who communes at a Catholic church automatically excommunicates himself. The Catholics, Latin and Eastern, will commune Orthodox, but Orthodox Christians have no permission to do so.

We will, but it is Illicit and thus a sin.

This position is clearly laid out by every Orthodox priest (of various jurisdictions) I’ve talked to. I would think they know what they are talking about.

P.S. I’ve never been to the Middle East and don’t intend to go anytime soon.

Well start talking to every Orthodox priest you know about which Ecumenical Council laid it out and who has rule authoritatively that their reading of it is the ancient and authentic understanding of it.

Than start talking to people from the Middle East.
