Most of the arguments detailed below are shared in the responses of all the churches and of the other essays included in the volume, but the Churches of Constantinople and Greece give the most detailed comments (pp. 30-44 and 53-67, respectively).
Some of the above correspondence is also included in a volume published by St. Vladimir's Seminary Press, ''The Autocephaly of the Orthodox Church in America'' (originally published in ''St. Vladimir's Theological Quarterly''), accompanied by articles by [[John H. Erickson]] and Fr. [[Alexander Schmemann]] defending the autocephaly.
Shortly after the official correspondences of the hierarchs to one another, Prof. [[Panagiotis N. Trempelas]], a former member of the faculty at the School of Theology at the University of Athens, published ''The Autocephaly of the Metropolia in America'', which gave more detailed historical and canonical arguments against the grant of autocephaly, including a rebuttal of the Schmemann article, "A Meaningful Storm."
