The Catholic Church is not just the Church of Rome. There are other Eastern Catholic Churches who are not schismatic, they are perfectly obedient to the Holy Father.

The Melkite Church is my favorite eastern Church.

The pope is only a vicar of Christ on earth as the Apostle Peters Successor. He is not Christ Himself hence not God, but he is beyond man by his Holy Office. This is our belief as Catholic Christian. If you dont agree or support union between Eastern & Western Christian, then let those who support this union be united in the one Holy, Catholic & Apostolic Faith because many of Eastern Churces today adhere to the reunion of Christ mystical Body. May God bless all Eastern Christians....

Tradition never past. The Tridentine Mass is still celebrated by Catholics in many places, although they comprise only minority. Like in my country, many congregation around the world still celebrate this Trdentine Mass every sunday and Churchs membership is increasing every year. Eventhough the majority of Catholics today uses the Novus Ordo, but a large minority of traditionalist Catholics still celebrate this Tridentine Mass and thus ensuring the continuity of this everlasting Tradition..

not invalid but not used ie put in the drove.

sorry but you will find many protestors even here in youtube protesting against this.

The Tridential Mass is past.

I also pray for the union of the sister churches but not under the Pope. If th Pope accepts be the first between equals only and only then the union will be truth.

Amen

WHAT? Orthodox are not in Communion with Anglicans or any other denomination. Dont spread lies across. You know exactly why Protestands separated from RC Church and the reasons. May be they recognise Jesus as the sole leader but the differences are quite many. Learn first and then talk like this. If you think that the Pope is Christ himself then you are not C\hristian but just a papist.

thats exactly what i mean. people use religion to do bad things and good things.

The 2nd Vatican Council does not put the Traditional Latin Mass in a state of invalid. Bishops are still able to choose weather to use the Traditional one or the simplified one. The most important to this is those simplification does not implied to Eastern Catholic who use Eastern Liturgy, and thus safeguarding their own right and Liturgy as Eastern Catholic. Even though they recocgnise the Pope as their Spiritual Leader on earth, The Vatican still honour their ecclesiastical jurisdiction..

If Orthodox believers consider Jesus Christ as the Sole Leader of all Orthodox churches, then they suppose to consider other Christian deno like Protestant equal to their church hence it is not wrong for Orthodox to worship in Baptist church, to receive Holy Bread(Eucarist) in Lutheran church or even to be confirmed(Chrism) in Anglican church because all of these churches consider christ as their sole leader.
