Regarding the above comment, I wanted to point out that the organization behind the “One Date” petition is “True Life in God” which promotes the writings of Vassula Ryden, a Greek-Orthodox seer that claims to receive messages from Jesus through the unvoluntary movement of her hand (experts have identified this as automatic writing). The Orthodox and Catholic Churches have warned about Mrs Ryden’s writings and activities, and do not recognize her as an authentic seer (see: http://www.infovassula.ch/tligchurchposi tion.htm ). The One Date petition, even if it promotes a positive action towards more unity between the Orthodox and the Catholic, has as its main purpose to find a way into Christian communities.

For more information on Mrs Ryden and True Life in God (from a critical and catholic point of view), you might want to check my website: http://www.infovassula.ch

On the theme of Christian unity Cardinal Kasper addressed the Worlds Cardinals on the eve of the consistory stating that “Ecumenism is not an option but an obligation” following the meeting in Ravenna (Oct 2007) where the Orthodox patriarch’s (Russia not present) recognised the primacy of the Pope.

Cardinal Kasper said the agreement reached in Ravenna was important, but “it is only a first step.”

Quoting the Second Vatican Council, Benedict XVI said “the lack of unity between Christians ‘openly contradicts the will of Christ, provides a stumbling block to the world, and harms the most holy cause of proclaiming the good news to every creature.’”

As an individual you can take a small step towards Christian Unity at http://www.onedate.org.

It is an on line petition to unite the date of Easter that Catholics, Protestants and Orthodox would celebrate this Feast of Feasts all on One Date.
