True ecumenism should be about the shepherd calling back the lost sheep to the fold, into the comforting arms of the Church, under the leadership of the Supreme Pontiff, the Vicar of Christ. Any other kind is wrong, misguided and potentially disastrous.
Take, for example, Vincent Nichols, the Archbishop of Westminster. His visit to a Hindu temple and his laying down of flowers before a hindu idol was no doubt well-intentioned but what does that act symbolise to the rest of the world? It sends the message that it's okay not to be a Catholic or even a Christian. It suggests that there are many different ways of looking at God and lots of different path to God.
That is plainly wrong.
Archbishop Nichols, please don't repeat that mistake. . .
