That goes two ways, OOD. You have said much about Papa Nicholas Planas without documentation.

Everyone has said a lot of things here without documentation. It's starting to sound like a schoolyard fight.
"Our Elders are holier than your Elders...."
"Your Elder wears army boots...."

I have only one thing to say to all of you:
CHRIST IS BORN! GIVE GLORY!
So lets stop this useless bickering for the sake of the Nativity and at least be united enough to worship Christ on this Holy day.........or is the divide between us all too great for even this now? Shame on us all if it is.

I didn't think I was bickering. If I have offended Romiosini in any way, I ask his forgiveness.

It is the eve of the Nativity of Our Lord, and I agree it time to put aside our differences and reflect on the coming feast.....

Has the GOC (or any Traditionalist group for that matter) said anything definitive on their feeling towards the various saints that have been part of new calendar churches? I am talking about people like St. Justin Popovich, St. Nikolai of Ohrid, Elder Cleopas of Romania, Elder Porfyrios, Elder Sophrony, Saint Silouan the Athonite (and the list coud go on...) Is the view that these great ascetics are no more saints than Francis of Assisi commonly held by those in the GOC, ROAC etc?
