Considering the lack of recognition for Rome is a HUGE part of why the two are schismed from each other, it doesn't make a lot of sense. It's a bit like saying you wish the Anglicans would recognize the Pope. IDGI.

Eastern Catholics, who do recognize the Pope, not the Eastern Orthodox which you are thinking about. And there actually are quite a few Anglo-Papists though most of those are probably going to join the new ordinates.

Too many terms are used for more than one thing. Anyway it'd be such a huge culture shift, I maintain you'd have better luck getting the overall Anglican church to recognize Rome.

I'm aware that some exist, that wasn't what I was saying.

Oh I know that which is why I said while I would like to see it happen, I doubt it ever will. Ideally I would love to see something like a return to the old Ecumenical Councils, but again doubt that will happen.

It still seems weird to say, as a non-member, isn't that like me saying I wish that Reform Judaism would really go back to older traditions or something?
