Re: Ecumenical Patriarch meets with others in Georgia

Re: Ecumenical Patriarch meets with others in Georgia

I guess being post papal, I don't have a reaction to a wannabe pope. The man is pitiful and teaches heresy. Personally, I would be ashamed if I were a Georgian.

Re: Long Skirts (ankle length) vs. Short Skirts

I think what helps keep people civil with immodesty is the realization that even if you can see, you don't necessarily have the right to touch.

As a man I like both. As an Orthodox Christian, it seems to me modesty is best reflected by something which covers more of the body.

Re: New Attack from Ancient Faith Radio vs. the True Orthodo

Indeed, pews are should be there for the aged and infirm and that is what I have indicated, but NOT up to the kliros. Around the perimeter of the church with "some" chairs as necessary. As far as "crying rooms being a bad idea", in reality a crying, loud, disruptive child is best...
