"Sadly, I don't see an Ecumenical Council...."

The value of an Ecumenical Council like Vatican II is the number of things it explains --theologically, traditionally, politically, spiritually, etc. It's a covered dish, as it were. Anyway, it's the Catholic way of doing things, listening to the Holy Spirit, changing things, developing dogma, teaching. On the other hand, Protestant churches -- free of tradition, setting a reduced price on tradition, as it were, so much smaller demographically (and often acting like national churches, a federation of churches [like Lutheran and Anglicans churches], etc. -- do things differently, so differently. I am sure, too, Vatican III theologians -- representing all the different 24 Catholic Churches, but primarily the Latin/Roman/Western Church -- will hear in retrospect the world of Orthodoxy in their sessions.
