The"RevueCatholiquedesIdeeset desFaits,"oneoftheleadingCatholic publicationsofBelgium,hasdevoted severalarticlesoflatetothequestion ofaFranco-Belgian-Italiarlfederation. Severalofthesearticleswerebrought totheattentionoftheItalianDictator, Mussolini,whomadeknownthaton severalpointshewasthoroughlyin agreementwiththeBelgianreview. The"RevueCatholiquedesIdeeset desFaits"hasnotundertakenaninvestigationorsurveyofthereligious moral,politicalandeconomicsituation ofNewItaly,andMr.NorbertWallez, ProfessoroftheCommercialandConsularHighSchoolofMons,hasbeen appointedtomakethisinvestigation, inthecourseofwhichhewillinterview membersoftheItalianGovernment, prelatesandprominentlaymen.

MeaningoftheTerms.

Inthefirstplace,wemustdefineexactlywhatwemeanbythephrase"the East,"or"theEasternChurches"In theforegoingparagraphthesewords havebeenputintoitalics.Thishas l?eenclonenotforthepurposeofdepreciationorpartisansarcasm,but merelybecausethewordsareveryinadequatetoexpressthethingswhich they..reusedtodenote.Thereisno Churchwhichisentirely"Eastern,' noristhereanywhichisentirely 'Western."India,forexample,is certainlyanEasternland!TheCatholicsofIndia,however.arenot(ecclesiasticallyspeaking)"Easterns," but"Westerns."belongingtotheLatin rite:althoughtheCatholicRutheniansareofan"Eastern"rite,though (geographicallyspeaking)theyarefar moreWesternthanisIndia!

WhyEasternandWesternChurches AreThusrailed.

Theparadox-asitmayseematfirst glancetobe-issolvedbyrealising that"Eastern"and"Western"Churchesaresocallednotsomuchonaccountofgeographicalpositionasby reasonofwhatecclesiasticalrite,or Patriarchate,theybelongto.Even whenthisisrealised,however,there stillremainsacertainamountof vaguenessabouttheterm"theEasternChurches,"forwemustalsobear inmindthatsomeofthoseChurches arealreadyinfullcommunionwith Rome,althoughthemajorityofthem isnot.Thosewhoare,arecalled "Uniates."Thisarticlewillnotrefer tothemverymuch,astheydonot greatlyenterintooursubject.We arehereconcernedmainlywiththose whoareinschismfromRome:the OrthodoxChurchofRussia;theestablishedChurchofGreece;the ChurchofSerbia;theChurchofBulgaria;thehurchofCyprus;theAbys- sinian,Coptic,Jacobite,Armenian,and otherlesserChurches.Someofthe smalleroftheseareinschismnotonly fromRome,butalsofromthe"Orthodox"Eastitself.TheCoptsand Abyssinians,ofexample,areMono- physites,andrejecttheancientCouncilofChalcedon,whichthe"Orthodox East"receives.Itwillbeseen,then, that"theEast"isanythingbutaun- ityinitself!Thegreaterpartofit, itistrueisagreedinfundamentalsof faith,theMonophysites.Nestorians, andotherheretics(fromthe"Orthodox"pointofview)beingasmallmin- oritywhilethegreatmajorityagrees infaithwiththePatriarchofCon- stantinople.alTheOrthodoxChurchandtheState. - However,thefactremainsthateven the"Orthodox"arelargelyenslavedto theState.UndertheTsardomthis slaverywasalmostabsoluteinthe caseoftheRussianChurch(which,by theway,hasneveratanytimebeen incommunionwithRome,forthebe- ginningsoftheconversionofRussia toChristianitytookplaceafterthe schismofPhotius);and,underthe Bolshevists,thetyrannyofestablish- mentseemsmerelytohavegivenplace tothetyrannyofpersecutionandin- ternalstrife.TheSerbianandBul-garianChurchesarecloselyboundup withtheState;whileastothatof Greeceitisnecessaryonlytoquote thewordsoftheSynodofNauplia (A.D.1833):"TheEasternOrthodox andApostolicChurchofGreece acknowledgestheKingofGreeceto beherSupremeHeadasinnothing contrarytotheholycanons.Aper-

Itwasimpos- siblethattheEasternEmperors,who clungsojealouslytotheirecclesias- ticalrights,shouldhavefavouredthe outspreadofthepowerofthewestern patriarchs(thePopes)intheirdo- minions."

ThisLong-LastingAntagonism. antagonismtoRomehaslasted forovertencenturies;ithasbeenex- pressedinformulaeoffaith;inthe caseofRussiaithasbeenembodiedin aChurchwhichhasneverknownany otherconditionofaffairsatall;and inallcasesitisboundupwithrace, patrioticfeeling,tradition,andthe poweroftheState.Toquotethe lateDr. Constantinople,"AdrianFortescue("Romeand 1908,pp.1-2):"There areabout100millionsofOrthodox Christians,speakingsometwentydiff- erentlanugages,fillingEasternEurope andtheLevantfrom.theWhiteSea totheLibyanaesert,fromDalmatioto theEuphrates,andthenextendingfar EastagainacrossSiberiatothePacific Ocean..

Whathopeisthere?

AGreatandUnnecessarySchism. Itissaidthattheschismbetween-theEast"andRomeispurelyor chieflyoverjurisdiction,andthat,in theessentialsoffaith,Catholicsand the"Orthodox"aremainlyagreed.Dr.Fortescue,indeed("RomeandCon- stantinople,"pp.2'2and'2', said,"The mostwonderfulpartofthewholestory isthataquarrelsoentirelypersonal initsnatureshouldstillkeeptwomightyChurchesapart.

TheCouncilofFlorence. Attemptsatreunionhave,indeed, beenmade:butpermanentsuccess hasneverattendedthemonanylarge scale.Forexample,theCouncilof Florence(A.D.1439-1442).Toquote "TheDictionaryofReligion"(ed.Rev. W.Benham,London,1891.p.441): "Championswerechosenoneachside: ontheLatin,CardinalJulianCaesar-

ini,andJohntheProvincialGeneral oftheDominicanOrderinLombardy; ontheGreek,IsodoreofRussiaand CardinalBessarion.Aftertwofine haranguesmadebythislas',onthe ProcessionoftheHolyGhost,allthe Greekssubscribedtothebeliefofthe WesternChurch,exceptMark,Bishop ofEphesus.Afterwardssomeother matters,relatingtoPurgatory,were determined,andaunionbetweenthe GreekandLatinChurchesconcluded;but,theconductoftheEasternbis- hopsnotbeingapprovedbytheirparty whentheyreturnedhome,prevented theagreementfromtakinganyeffect." Toputitplainly,theEastrepudiated theunionwithfury!Totheques- tion("Will'theEast'bereunitedto Rome?")theanswer,then,willseem bynomeansoptimistic.Agreatand unexpectedmovementmaytakeplace; butonsuchpossibilitiesitisnotper- missibletocount.Thegreatageof theschism;itsfundamentalcharacter asaffectingtheverynatureofthe Church;theseand'otherfactorsseem totellfatallyagainstthehumanpro- babilityofreuniononanylargescale.
