| | Pope Leo IX |
| | At any rate, the Pope, already a prisoner of the Normans, and with a head full of troubles with his own emperor, the Church in France and England, missionaries being persecuted, and lords and kings putting their no good sons and nephews in as abbots and bishops, was probably not a little upset over Cerularius' apology. | | | Meanwhile Cerularius had appointed Archbishop Leo of Achrida to write the letter to bishops of southern Italy, and this letter was been passed on to the pope from Apulia in southern Italy. | | | It is possible too that the Pope was so upset with the Patriarch's closing the Latin churches and his "apology" on top of it, that he felt that just such a man with the frame of mind that Humbert had toward the Greeks was the right one to send. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Pope Leo X |
| | The most important occurrence of Leo's pontificate and that of gravest consequence to the Church was the Reformation, which began in 1517. | | | The advantage to the Church and the pope of such a great sacrifice was that France, hitherto schismatical in attitude, now stood firmly bound to the Holy See, which thus turned aside the danger of complete estrangement. | | | The pope wished at first to remain neutral but such a course would have isolated him, so he decided to be faithful to the policy of his predecessors and sought accordingly to oppose the designs of France, but in doing so, to avoid severity. |

| | He next instructed Leo the Archbishop of Ochrida (in Serbia) in whose province the south Italian churches were located to write a letter of explanation to the churches in Byzantine Italy explaining why the Latin speaking churches there must now conform to the Greek liturgy. | | | Leo IX's priorities included getting the churches and monasteries of his new province to recognize the authority of the papacy. | | | Humbert flatly asserted the authority of the Pope over the Patriarch and went on to itemize and demand the correction of several errors of the eastern parts of the church which, he asserted, had been too long neglected already. |

| | Leo's last days were marred by the development of the great dispute which drove the Eastern Churches out of communion with Rome, though he died shortly before the actual breach. | | | The purpose of the Gregorian Reform was not only to revive the Church within, improving standards of education and mission and eliminating corruption, but also to achieve a proper division between the responsibilities of Church and state. | | | Several bishops were deposed (though in most cases they received their see back again, have been provided symbolically with a new crozier to represent a new start). |

| | All three Popes, one of whom was a saint, sought to reform Holy Mother Church in ethics and morals and were quite successful in their quest, but militarily they fell short. | | | The East-West Schism was official; the separation of the Orthodox Churches from unity and obedience to the Pope has remained so from this day forward though recent attempts to reconcile have been made by both Pope John Paul II and the current Eastern patriarch. | | | Bruno was wise beyond his years and realized if he assumed the throne of Peter on Henry's authority only he would have problems with the people and be weakened in his effort to unify Holy Mother Church who he deeply loved and respected. |
