Keep in mind that if you look hard enough you can find Catholics you believe all kinds of things. I'm not saying that I haven't met any Latin Catholics with a negative view of Patriarch Photios (as a matter of fact, I have met Latin Catholics with extremely negative views of him); I'm just saying that that doesn't mean very much.
