The rift between Moscow and the EP on this matter is clear, but what is the source of it? Again, it seems to me that the root cause is the EP's claiming of canonical prerogatives that not everyone is in agreement about. I mean, is there anyone who agrees with the EP's decision to accept Bishop Basil in Great Britain, in spite of the fact that he was not properly released by the Russian Church? Its this sort of ecclesiastical hubris, in my judgment, that is the root of the problem.
