Ecumenism and Tolerance

Summary/Abstract: The schism in Christianity occurred in 1054. Christianity split into Eastern (Orthodox) and Western (Catholic). In the West there was Rome as the center of the Catholic Church, while in the east strengthened the influence of the Russian Orthodox Church. We should recall the, laying the bule, exclusion against Patriarch Michael I Cerularius, whowas puton the throne on 16 July 1054 of St. Sophia in Constantinople by cardinalHumekt on behalf of Pope Leo IX, who died three months ago, Christianity was officially divided into east and west. The third millennium belongs to ecumenism the reconciliationof ecclesiastical differences and re-creation of a common faith, which existed before the Great Schism. Christian churches are now more familiar than ever in recent centuries, many tensions have eased, but not disappeared. All maintain dialogue with everyone. Roman Catholic contact more and better with the Orthodox churches, Anglicans, despite the silent crucial block. Orthodox theologians lead theological dialogue with the majority of churches. Ecumenism was created in the second half of the 19th century, and a full development has experienced in the 20th century. Many theologians interpret ecumenism as a new phenomenon in a religion. In recent years ecumenism represents the discovery of common biblical, liturgical, patristic and spiritual roots, in fact, above all, a better knowledge of the Bible , the live word of the God. Ecumenism implies a dialogue of the Orthodox and the Catholic Church in order to achieve a common result, which is the unification. In the near future we should think about the convening of the joined Parliament on which would be represented all the Christian churches? On that great convocation of the joined Parliament should be establish a dialogue that would lead to the overcoming of the schism but also the restoration of the historical unity of the church. But unity is not in sight.
