💨 Abstract

This Sunday, Catholic and Orthodox churches will celebrate Easter on the same day for the first time in over 400 years. Pope Francis and other religious leaders have expressed a desire to maintain this unity, but underlying mistrust between the two Christian communions remains. The churches use different calendars due to the Western church adopting the Gregorian calendar in 1582 while the Eastern Orthodox Church kept the older Julian one.
