<div class="moz-cite-prefix">The first 7 match the 7 covered in the
book. I put "ecumenical" in scare-quotes, because I knew that
Catholics regard all their councils as ecumenical (that being
pretty much the definition of "catholic"). The Eastern Orthodox
churches only recognize the first 7, and that is why this author
calls them "ecumenical". This is a Protestant church, and it is
news to them that there were more than one. So I am not going to
push calling the remaining 14 councils "ecumenical" - although I
will of course mention that Catholics regard them so.<br>
