[edit] Oldest governing body?!

I don't understand the following statement. As such, it seems false, given that the Oecumenical Patriarchy governed itself for far longer than 200 years:

At the time of its disestablishment, it was the oldest governing body (Holy Synod) among the various Orthodox Churches.

Can someone explain? Dpotop 15:02, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Caesaropapism

The claims of caesaropapism in this article are unsourced. I am confused how it is that the advice of 2 church bishops to create a reform is caesaropapism (which it is my understanding is the idea that the Secular Leader is the leader or a leader with authority over the church). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kharaku (talk • contribs) 20:19, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
