There was a circumstantial account, when the Ordinariates were set up, that Archbishop Bergoglio invited to breakfast the [Anglican] Archbishop of the Southern Cone ... or something ... and cheered him up by telling him that he disapproved of the action.
Some weeks ago, PF spoke to a delegation from the Moskow Patriarchate and assured them, very categorically, of his most profound disapproval, and prohibition, of 'Uniatism' [to be fair, there was one brief clause asserting the rights of the existing sui iuris Churches].
I think this more or less confirms the old story.
PF also reiterated on this occasion his belief in the practical irrelevance of doctrine.
The text was immensely characteristic.

"PF also reiterated on this occasion his belief in the practical irrelevance of doctrine."
Which is, ironically enough, a particular *kind* of irrelevant doctrine... yes?
Well, His Beatitude the Patriarch might have liked the first part of the message. I am quite certain though that Moskow DOES see the importance of doctrine...
