I also agree it should be removed.

Unionist or Confederate Priests???
I disagree, as I think it is a parishioner's right to know where his priest stands on these issues; Whether he be a Unionist when it comes to the MP, or if he is a, for lack of a better term, a Confederate.
But I will convene a 'synod' of sorts with my moderators and we will make a decision as a group.
Thank you for bringing your concerns to my attention.

Also you will the same names keep coming up over and over with respect to causing discord against their bishops-past, present, and future, scandalizing the faithful with internet sermons, and bullying those less eager to join with gang tactics, ie- you're the only one in the diocese(monestary,parish,etc) not to join up with the new show in town. Through the prayers of the Theotokos, have mercy on us!
well hey, if it's ok to obtain such information stolen from private clergy lists, then it must be okay to tap their phones and read their mail, and hide in the bushes outside the chancery when they have meetings, listening in to see "who" is a crypto-communist "unionist"!

Please do not message me with questions about the forum or moderation requests. Jonathan Gress (jgress) will be able to assist you.
Please note that I do not subscribe to "Old Calendar Ecumenism" and believe that only the Synod of Archbishop Kallinikos is the canonical GOC of Greece. I do believe, however, that we can break down barriers and misunderstandings through prayer and discussion on forums such as this one.

I've known about this list for a very long time, but I was lucky that I was at least some of the time in the loop, due to my dad being a priest, and would hear things discussed that normal laypeople did not. The priests, deacons, etc mentioned in the list have NEVER made secret their ideas about reconciliation, the MP, etc. Since then, some have changed their minds, or their ideas of how they should proceed (example, Fr. Mickle).
I would like to state that the rocaclergy@yahoo.com mailing list is specified as PRIVATE, as in, no one but ROCOR clergy may access it, and no member may publicize it. It is a place for ROCOR clergy to go and bounce ideas of each other. If every e-mail every priest or deacon sent to rocaclergy@yahoo.com was made public, pandemonium would insue. It is a place where priests go to ask for advice of their bretheren. It is not for people to sneak in & peak. To get on this list you must first specify that you are clergy, your name, rank, and parish. The 2 mailing clergy lists, rocorclergy & rocaclergy, are NOT for public viewing, therefore anything taken off there and publicised should be stricken.
Man, if I had the gall to use the rocaclergy or rocorclergy or any other PRIVATE lists to make my points on public forums, I would have had a lot more backup to the points I make. As it is, I know some of my posts give off the sense of ignorance, as my sources WERE classifed, and I could not name them.
