		Thanks to the translation of the article recently provided by a Serbian Orthodox priest, Catholics are able to better assess the view of the Catholic Church held by some influential Serbian Orthodox and the consequent difficulties encountered by Catholics involved in the ecumenical dialogue with the various Eastern Orthodox national autocephalous churches.
		The Serbian writer ignores that an indulgence (the Latin word for 'pardon' of the temporal punishment due sin) has its roots in the belief of the ancient Church that ecclesiastical authority has the power to determine the penance or good work which will expiate the punishment and cleansing due after death.
		It is the fruit of centuries of political rivalries (especially with the Catholic Croats), seven wars involving the Serbian people during the 20th century, and theological misconceptions and errors by individual prelates and theologians who confuse their own views with that of pan-Orthodoxy.
