Personalities and Conflicts• Michael Cerularius, Patriarch of Constantinople, and Pope
St. Leo IX weren’t friends, and each one mistrusted the other. Cerularius crossed the line when he wrote in a letter that the Latin use of unleavened bread was Jewish but not Christian. He was denying the validity of the Holy Eucharist in the Western Church. Leo countered by saying that the patriarchs had always been puppets of the Byzantine emperors.
• In the end, Pope Leo and Patriarch Michael excommunicated each other and their respective churches.
