Great Idea....

People will always come to the Red Square, true enough. It's a beautiful (hence the name, Red = Krasnoye = Beautiful in Russian, it was the Red Square long before the Communist era) place, and well worth a visit.
Personally, I think it'd be grand if they took Lenin's body, gave it the old ...

True

I don't think that the Orthodox in Russia would be big proponents of burning him since we do not believe in cremation.
I think he should be buried somewhere and no longer given this heroic status. We should never forget history, but I think the Russian people should take a step forward to ...

Warsaw (ENI). A Russian Orthodox spokesman has called for Lenin's body to be removed from its mausoleum in Moscow's Red Square and reburied according to Christian rites, as debates rage on about how holy the site is where the atheist revolutionary is buried. Russian Orthodox Church observers have ...

Impersonation?

I think Tikhon ought to apologize for having impersonated clergy. Not an explanation like "sorry, I thought it wouldn't matter." I mean he owes us an admission of guilt for what is no trivial "miscommunication." (He probably owes the Lardas family a personal call too.) What is friendship if we ...

Goodbye my friends!

Just a short note to tell everyone goodbye.
I was invited here, because I thought that being a strong, Conservative Orthodox Christian, I would be welcome here. Instead, It has caused a division, and that was NOT my purpose. It has cast dispersions on my honesty which is also regrettable. I take ...
