SBDear Benjamin,
Very true.
Could it not also be said that one should never use the afflicted especially to attack the Church of Christ as it appears that certain people are doing?

"The Synod of Metropolitan Cyprian adheres wholly to the exact same ecclesiological and dogmatic principles as our Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia,"
This guy is an idiot. I for one, as an Orthodox christian, if i seen him on the street would rip that cross off his hands, No one is going to mock my Faith and the monastic ranks like that.
This guy was a jew before converting (supposedly)and now some think its good that he blames them due to some jewish conspiracy.
Secondly, this shows the kind of wackos the ROAC attracts first it was that arab-american who tries so hard to convinve everyone he is a russian-Gregory of colorado. Now this jewish-american who believes he is a schema.
Which brings me to something else why on google-video is this guy giving interviews with "world orthodoxy' presvytera Irene Matta? Wow he doesnt seem to have a problem interviewing with old calendarists in communion with new calendarists on this video.
I am fairly new to the forum so please let me know if I am wrong.I have been looking for a traditional Orthodox jurisdiction to belong to and have been studying them all.I was sad to see a reacent post where it was said"Secondly this shows the kind of wackos the ROAC atracks."Why such a mean comment????.I thought Gregory of Colodaro is no longer a part ROAC and I think Br Nathanil is isn't either(Let me know if I am wrong).This bad mouthing of other jurisdictions just makes it harder for people like me who are looking for a true Orthodx church to find one and it can turn some away from Orthodoxy all together.My self I would tend to stay away from a jurisdiction whos people knock others instead of talking about the love Christ had for ALL.HE wouldn't go around calling someone or a group wackos but would show them love and correct their wrongs with love and prayer, if they are wrong.Comments like the wacko one will tend to make me loook at ROAC more and I am no wacho.Please pray for me as I pray for you and pray for thoes you don't agree with ,have more respect and love and have respect for all the jurisdictions in these forums even if you don't agree with them.Prayer does more then bad words.Greg
