Milla, yes so very true. My question is, where does it stop. Does the ranting of a few who are in "exile" stop the work from moving forward, I pray not. Yes we are all allowed to have opinions and may not agree with everything (one of the perks of being Orthodox). Unity of Faith and following Chirst now there is a concept.

I feel sure that this is why one particular member, who repeatedly posts over-the-top outrageous insults aimed at masses of people, as well as at individuals, has been allowed to continue here with, what I consider, protected status.
The website has potential for good, but the "bad" has predominated for some time now. I am trying extremely hard these days to monitor my own tongue, and to erase posts of mine which I later decide only exacerbate the current problems.
With prayers for all,

You are mistaken, this it is not a ROAC site, but it is a Traditionalist site, you notice que one of moderators it is of the GOC under Archbishop Crisostomos of Athens.
As for Br Nathaniel doesn't know which is his situation and if it has been received in ROAC (FROC) or another jurisdiction.
I'm sure some of you are familiar with www.orthodoxchristianity.net and their forum. If not, check it out. It seems to draw a more civilized crowd, diverse crowd- from ROCOR laymen to GOA seminarians.

Maybe that bitterness is what gives the zeal for the Faith, that zeal that many have lost... And the bitterness is caused to see the other ones fall in the Apostasy

Yes, of course. That forum is moderated pretty closely though. People get away with much less. Also, for whatever reason, it does draw a larger more diverse crowd- which makes for a diversity of opinions.
