There is some truth to the old adage of catching more flies with honey than with vinager.

Peter,

You may have missed it so I'll ask again.

Do you think Schemman has a point in his critic of Vl. Philaret's epistle?

Oops, sorry.

I think Fr. Schmemann raises some interesting questions regarding the position of the Church Abroad. The most interesting of these questions to me is (paraphrasing): "Just what is the real position of the Church Abroad to the other jurisdictions?" I think that is a legitimate question. Besides that, I don't really find myself nodding my head to his questions or statements. I think Fr. Michael Azkoul's reply sums up my sentiments, in many respects.
Is that the kind of answer you're looking for, or am I missing something?

I don't think I'm looking for a specific question. I'll have to re-read Fr. Micheal's essay.
