Disparate Theological Formulations Between The East & The West

Recommended Posts

This is a post primarily for Apotheoun to contribute to as he seems our resident non-Latin Catholic. I'm sure there are other people who are as curious as me about some of this stuff, though. I've tried studying it a bit on my own but the linguistic and terminological differences seem a barrier to some of my comprehension and I think having someone competent to rephrase things would be beneficial. I've just recently returned to frequent posting on Phatmass since the last couple of years have been pretty intense undergraduate coursework...so it this is a redundant topic, just direct me where I need to go because I'm curious and probably missed out on prior discussion.

What are the fundamental theological differences between Eastern & Western Philosophy (the 'Big Three' if you will).

How are these differences reconciled between those Eastern Churches in Union with Rome compared to those that remain in schism?

What precisely does 'Submission to Rome' mean if said differences remain prominent components of theological disunity?

If Popes have spoken infallibly using theological language which is in contrast to Eastern Theology, how does an Eastern Catholic respect the Primacy of the Petrine Office without undermining the ancient Eastern Traditions?

In Previous posts, I have notice Apotheoun refer to the 'undoing of Latinization of Eastern Church's after their return to Union with Rome' (or something close to that phrasing)...In what ways were these Church's 'latinized' and in what ways are they dropping said latinization.

I'll probably come up with more questions as a discussion proceeds...if people have time and such.

Thanks,

Todd W.

Haha...I'm waiting for Apo to educate me...he did send me a link to a previous thread...he said he would get to this one when he had time.

The other thread primarily deals with 'how' the East & West were different...I'm interested in how important these differences are in the continuing unity of the Eastern Catholics with the West...

Here's that link Revprodeji: [url="http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/index.php?showtopic=34879"]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/index.php?showtopic=34879[/url]
