I am moving this discussion into Intra-TOC Polemics as it has now crossed the line.

Barbara, please reread your post. I know that you are very concerned, and rightfully so, but that type of post is not suitable for the public forum.

Maria,
Administrator

Bp Stefan did not participate in the elevation of Fr Andrei [Psarev] to the episcopacy in Australia. Only 2 "bishops" did perform this consecration, the usual suspects, Andronik and Sophrony.

Is anyone concerned about the fact that there were only 2 'bps' present ? Or the group is so off the 'charts' anyway that no one expects better ?

Oh NO ! I was looking at the Rocana site today and saw that even Protodeacon Basil Yakimov is part of the runaway bandit crowd.

He had appeared to be still loyal to the main Rocor-A synod. But it seems he has thrown his lot in with the renegades :

"...Protodeacon Fr. Vasily Yakimov led the bishop-designate to the Royal Gates, where he was received by the hierarchs inside the altar..."

Please do not use any font colors except a dark blue or black. You may use the red font to highlight a short phrase or single word, but use of too many colored fonts makes it too difficult to read.

Please use [quote] [/ quote] whenever quoting a passage. (eliminate the extra space after the /)
You may also use

  • [/ list] when listing items within a quote. (again eliminating that extra space after the /]
    The list feature will automatically indent the paragraph or items.

    Maria,

This is really terrible news.

I am surprised to see Fr Sergey Klestov as part of this new endeavor.

Klestov? I heard from him to say even he did not know what Cyprianism is....

Are some priests faithfully following bishops into schism regardless of the heresy which these bishops espouse?
