So is Pope John Paul's rejection of the idea of converting the Orthodox balanced or unbalanced?

Amazing you now use tactics you so often condemn. What Popes Pius XI, Boniface VIII, and others have stated on this matter cannot be forgotten. What Pope John Paul II stated could possibly be balanced with past Church teaching if these talks are successful and the 'Orthodox' Churches as a whole returned to the One True Church, then there would be no need for converting the 'Orthodox'.

Division is a sad reality, but Catholics calling the Orthodox schismatics and Orthodox calling Catholics schismatics will hardly do anything to restore full communion between the two sides.

I am sorry that factual use of words offend you. But you have no problem using words like Heretic or Heretical in reference to Protestants and their theology. And when others make similar arguments as you have just made you remind us that sometimes the truth hurts but it is the truth.
