More properly, I mean that when you read the whole letter, it is clear that he is basing his entire argument against the Monothelitists on the grounds of the energy-essence distinction

And the fact that it is affirmed at Constantinople III means it is dogmatic

I have a question for everyone

What do you think of Theozoology?

I think you are trying too hard to see what isn't there

The text just mentions how even though Christ has two natures, with activities that are characteristic of both, it can't be said that there are two Christs, or that some activities don't belong to Christ

That is why, aftter the very sentence you quoted, it says

etc etc

I'm not attempting to say there are two christs

I'm trying to show you that the energy-essence distinction is all throughout the letter

That is what the letter is refering to, in that chapter

Yes, but he goes on and on about energy essence throughout the whole thing

Which is why I said, "the whole letter pretty much."

In other words: tehre is nothing in that letter that is rejected by Catholicism, unless you think that Catholicism says that Christ has no activities, or doesn't have two natures, etc

But he clearly makes a distinction between energy and essence

As I said, you can call is whatever you like, but that doesn't change the fact that theere is nothing in that text against Catholicism

Pope Agatho does the same

Alrighty, then be consistent and stop hating on the Orthobros for energy-essence distinction

unless you say, again, that Catholicism professes that Christ has no activities

And whatever "energy-essence distinction is", it doesn't seem like this has anything to do with it

He is clearly speaking in the language of energy-essence distinction.

Go read Basil and Cyril when they write of the energy-essence distinction and you'll see they use the same language

Sophronius was well read in their writings

He isn't being flippant here. He knows exactly what he's saying, and he is using energy-essence metaphysics to defend orthodox Christology

"The difference of the essence is always understood from the difference of the activities."

He cannot be more clear

Oy vey I had to listen to Christian music
It's like another holocaust

I'm gonna need reparations
and my great-great grandchildren are gonna need reparations for their epigenetic memories
The Bible triggered an epigenetic memory of my grand father being gassed six gorillion times and turned into a lampshade

As I said you can label it as you wish, but the text says what the text is, which is:

1 - Christ has 2 natures
2 - Even though the actions of Christ are associated to one of the natures (difference of activities associated to different essences) , they are of the same Christ, which is the point of the chapter of the profession: to oppose nestorianism.
