Some places novices are called "Brother." But the reason we call him "Brother" is that this is what he calls himself, so probably it is how he wishes to be addressed. We do the same for "Traditionalists" who are no less offensive than Brother Nathanael.
I'm ROCOR-PSCA, so I realize my opinions are not regarded in the same light as if I were a Traditionalist. However, I hope we can show a more charitable and generous spirit towards another Man's servant.
I'm grateful for his news. Since the shipwreck of the union I've learned as much from his livejournal as I have from this forum. Persoanlly I don't see how anyone can't just love him - Yes, he's a nut, but he's an adorable nut. Maybe just don't take him too seriously. We all have our faults, but most of us have less people seeing them.
