I don't often post anymore but Rosty It is long past time that someone award you the Golden Shovel award! Oy! :ohvey:

I don't know if I should laugh or cry bitterly. I have never, ever seen such misinformation, and poor history in all the days that I have taught on these subjects. It never ceases to surprise me the lengths people will go to to twist facts and reinterpret history to make it fit their conception of reality or "truth".

You really should avoid the Russian too, it only points to your poor comprehension of it.

God help us all, we are truly lost,

Firstly, address me as ROSTISLAV MIKHAILOVICH--that's even appropriate in your soviet milieu. SECONDLY, I'll ask you to provide specifics or desist from being argumentative--we don't need any soviet agitprop techniques of "provakatsija." Thirdly, I was born and raised in an Orthodox Russian family and nurtured on Pushkin and Dostoevsky--my mother's family baptized children with the Tolstoys: my Russian is fine thank you, even without your soviet accretions which aren't that much of a nuance. Fourthly, address substance instead of abetting corruption...

Rostislav Mikhailovich:

You assume too much.
I am not now, nor have ever been Soviet.
I am I think even more Russian than you, since I need no monarchist affectations to be comfortable about who I am.
Your Russian is still lousy.
You still are wrong about most of your pronouncements.
I have no desire to trade barbs with a person such as you have shown yourself to be here on this forum. In truth there really is no arguing with people such as yourself, you only hear your version and everyone else is wrong...so why bother.
I posted to point to the fact that you are again wrong in your statements.

I did what was necessary and don't feel anymore is needed, your reaction is more than sufficient satisfaction.

Its strange that my "pronunciation" can be deduced from transliterated Russian on an email group: you can hear the words here?!--you teach peoples" kids somewhere and get paid for it?! LOL! Secondly, your attempt to assault my Russian without specifics simply underscores the utter weakness of your position--soviet "provakatsija"--perhaps you'll find some specifics to ground your babble on this topic as well. I surmise you don't even understand Russian and are simply tossing barbs to see what sticks. Dear lady, I tutored Russian at Syracuse University. Thirdly, the only thing you demonstrate is your inability to discuss and comprehend a topic when you engage as you do. Fourthly, the only satisfaction you can derive from your miasma of ignorance is that you arent very bright and your interlocution serves to advance that and convince you of it. Enjoy your bliss...

Hatred of the monarchy and lack of patronymic are telling. LOL!

It is a classic technique of certain types to try to say that a person does not understand what he is talking about because his comprehension of a given language or context is deficient--it's a rude and unrefined soviet way of calling someone ignorant and dismissing them. I underscored that side of my background, for I will no longer tolerate the "anti-zarubezhnik" bias of the products of the homo sovieticus experiment. My credential is sufficient...

If I must be so specific, what struck me as "bordering on the crackpot" was the senseless sparring between Kollyvas and хорист. No more, no less. But yes, I used too harsh a label. I'm sorry.

If I offended you, Orthodox 6, I apologize, because I see my tone did get rather unpleasant.

But, as a North-American born member of ROCOR, to see Rostik linking this building to ROCOR, and then for him to make accuastions of those who dared disagree with him in his pronouncements (calling me a member of the Communist party, for example) got my goat.

Being considered a woman - and a Komsomolka, no less!- because of what I wrote was actually funny, though!

Perhaps writing it in crayon for your final understanding--I've made my case....

I never gave your uncouthe personage the right to adress me in a familiar and demeaning way--is this how you were raised?! Somehow, I don't doubt it...
