If you are ROCOR and oppose this union, what will you do??

Sane people shouldn't have to care about what the radical fringe chooses to do, including the Moscow Patriarch.

That's rich coming from one who isn't Orthodox...

Well, Mr. Benjamin, do you care to answer the question?
Are you ROCOR, and if so, do you plan on leaving? Seems Ms. Joanna can not/will not/doesn't have enough intelligence to answer. I'm also waiting for the Priest Siluan to answer...
There is some truth about the "radical fringe." I'm just trying to find out a little more info from the ones that are posting on this subject. It is clear who signed what and those Churches that are under the auspices of those bishops have two choices; that is, accept the God pleasing decision or leave.
Heck, if one has enough guts to say, "I disagree and this is why I can no longer remain with ROCOR", God bless you. I may not agree, but I have respect for one that will choose a side and stick with it. What I do not have any respect for is non-ROCOR giving their input on something that does not concern them, and those that are and hide behind some screen name taking cheap shots at someone who trusts his Metropolitan and the bishops of ROCOR. No one is required to like this decision, so why act like children that cry and scream when things don't go their way? Go your own way and pray for us if you think we have made a mistake--yeah, like that's gonna happen!!--and let us be.
Contrary to what anyone has heard, the opposition to the re-unification of the Russian Church is very, very small and has no basis at all.

Last warning "scwaterfowl", you can discuss issues, but do not make personal attacks!

... What I do not have any respect for is ... those that are and hide behind some screen name taking cheap shots at someone ...

Pot, kettle, black?

Christ is Born! Give ye Glory!

Hiding?

My baptismal name is Benjamin after Heiromartyr Benjamin of Petrograd. Is scwaterfowl an Orthodox name?

I have only ever been in ROCOR and at this exact moment I am still here.

What happens later today, tommorow or next week is something else, which depends on a number of things both private and public; when anything becomes public (if it does) I will tell of it.

Happy?

In Him
SB (Sinner Benjamin)

I am a FROC/ROAC Priest and in fact the old ROCOR was in communion with FROC, and while FROC (now ROAC) follows the way to the old ROCOR and ROCOR began to already stray of this way in the ninety years (or even before) to become the current Lavrites and New "ROCOR". I don't understand because you cannot understand it or at least to respect our point of view. Instead you are insulting us
