See what I mean now... This stuff is extremely damaging to our Church.
Yes indeed. This flippant attitude ultimately drove my wife away from LDS. We became Orthodox. None of this junk in EO. For a woman to do this in the Temple of God in Orthodoxy. Not happening period. And if it did...Lord Have Mercy on her!!!

The devil quoted Scripture too (Mt. 4:6). The question was never whether Scripture is authoritative — it's who interprets it. Christ founded a Church, not a book club: "Hold fast the traditions, whether by word of mouth or by our letter" (2 Thess. 2:15).

I am an orthodox priest in the Serbian Church we always baptize with full immersion. What was happening in the past was because of historical circumstances. We always baptize with full immersion

Good morning. There are no sacraments outside the Orthodox Church. Glad I was able to clear that up for you. Carry on.

Bend, Oregon man who shot and killed a shooter at his daughters' school speaks out, praises female teacher for fighting the shooter, allowing him to have a clear shot. Kaylub Giamanco says he is haunted by the sound of children pleading for their lives. He also praised the teacher for grabbing the gunman's weapon, allowing him to take a shot at the shooter. "I want to recognize [the teacher]. She gave me the opportunity to make my shot without losing my life..." "I swung the door open, and I stepped in, and I fired, and they dropped to the ground... I looked down at the gunman, and he was scrambling for his weapon. And I looked at him, and I shot him 2 more times..."

What’s actually going on in Ukraine is that there is a massive incentive difference between the elites and the people. The former have grown very rich off the hundreds of billions flowing to Ukraine, while the latter’s children are conscripted to die in trenches.

These schismatic groups have bishops who were never ordained, and some trace their succession via “hierarchy”s who were never even baptized. As they’ve intermingled, it’s rational to have a blanket policy of conditional baptism, rather than individually retracing them.

Prediction: the current visits, negotiations and attempts at diplomacy will lead to no wider agreement and will have no impact on the war as such

One reason why multiculturalism failed is its shallow interpretation of culture. Culture isn’t curry and clothes. Culture is values, worldview, history, ideas, religion, rules, beliefs, norms, laws, traditions, language, the ingrained habits and instincts of a hundred generations. Different cultures = different peoples

“The situation has never been so serious; the Fifth Republic is on the verge of collapse. My family has served France for centuries, and if France calls upon me, I will be at its service. The indispensable condition is that France desires the return of the monarchy - a monarchy above parties, unifying.” - Luís de Bourbon, direct descendant of Saint Louis IX

Didn't mean this to sound as blazé as it did, btw. I'm genuinely horrified at what's happening in France right now. Every time I go to Europe I'm more and more conscious of how much has been lost in Anglicanism, secularism, etc. due to wholesale iconoclasm and the rejection of the saints. We're reaping what we have sowed.
Well I guess we all see what happens when you let them Hugenots destroy the primary relics of St Irenaeus of Lyons.

GOOD, we need more of this. Over 2000 clerics, monastics and faithful signed a letter to the patriarch protesting patriarch Bartholomew’s visit. Citing the OCU tomos and the persecution of UOC clerics and faithful. Patriarch Bartholomew’s response?.. “the signatures are just a stunt, no one actually feels this way.” Do not allow the persecution and deaths of our brothers be ignored. The tomos must be revoked.
