I sent this link to a friend and this was their response, I agree.

A lovely video, especially in terms of how the Patriarch tried to turn the interviewer’s *wrong* understanding of the office of the bishop of Constantinople.

It was a little frustrating in the sense that the 60 Minutes guy presented the Patriarch as the eastern equivalent of the pope, which he is absolutely not. But at least the Patriarch and his place were described as humble and *not* pretending to the kind of jurisdiction the pope claims.

Frankly, it's nice when we're not portrayed as public enemies so you've got that going for you!

This seems like an excellent ecumenical thread to post this explainer video. Also, the humor in the video feels very CPS-appropriate to me.

I hope we all appreciate it....
