Firstly, one can read the rubrics of Sarum and observe the recreation of those rubrics and see a rite which looks very much like the Living Orthodox Rites.Pics are available, even on the net. ROCOR, however, isn't even using those rubrics but is using post Reformation Sarum ritual. Only the Milan pe...

Re: A Provocation ? Or how MP REALLY thinks of Rocor ?
This is your message for Christmas? Seething and crazy political hatreds?! This is of Christ?! Would Christ speak so venomously?! This is your "True Orthodoxy" to disgrace Christ's Nativity with your political hate?! Is this why He was Incarnate of a Virgin this night?! This is out of cont...
