Thoughts on Reunification

Catholic Easter and Orthodox Pascha coincide in 2004, on April 11. Wouldn't that be a good day for the reunification of the Catholic and Orthodox Churches?

2004 is also the 150th anniversary of the definition of the dogma of the Immaculate Conception. Does anyone know what the Orthodox think of that dogma?

They do not think very highly of it at all. At best, it doesn't make much sense according to the Orthodox understanding of original sin. At worst, it's part of the Roman attempt to turn Mary into a goddess.

Metaphysics is the finding of bad reasons for what we believe upon instinct, but to find these reasons is no less an instinct.
