Interesting that they had the Orthodox representatives leading the prayer. In the picture you have represented from L to R, the OCA, the Antiochians, the Armenians, the Copts, and the Greeks, praying in an Episcopalian chapel with all those other folks.

The canons say these Orthodox should be deposed and barred (Canon 65 of the Apostolic Canons). As I understand the canon, anyway. How can a layperson be barred or deposed? Isn't that just for clerics?

By "Orthodox representatives" you err if you include in your list the Armenians and Copts who are Monophysites. This picture says it all. The Copts and Armenians (who accept only the first three Ecumenical Councils) are already not Orthodox. You don't need to invoke the "other folks."

Oh, but the "other folks" make it so much more colourful! Monophysites are so yesterday. :)
