Catholics and Orthodox Reuniting? A Historic Step Toward Unity

Pope Leo XIV and Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew just took a step no one expected: reciting the Nicene Creed together without the Filioque. This moment shocked Catholics, Orthodox, and observers around the world. In this episode of FACTS with Stephen Boyce and Pat May, we break down why this gesture matters, what it signals about the future of East–West relations, and whether real reunification is finally possible after nearly 1,000 years of division.

We explore the historical background, the theological implications, and the global reactions to this unprecedented moment between Rome and Constantinople. Is this a symbolic gesture—or the beginning of something much bigger?
