No one argues that with the getting of Serbian bishop STOC became autocephalous.

Well, fr. Akakios..if you are not an autocephalous independent Church, neither a member of the RTOC hierarchy nor obedient to any Synod or Bishop, WERE DID YOU COME FROM and WERE ARE YOU GOING TO?
Admit it that you are totaly hovering in the middle of nowhere!

Well, bishop Photius... forgive me for critique, but you should know, that when someone becomes a bishop like yourself by the Will of God, you must respect its rank and calling.

You must show respect by calling him - Bishop Akakios (not formerly - father), or else you are giving us a bad example by your own disrespectful conversation towards people with different points of view on this situation.

I hope that this issue is only a matter of an old habit, and that you will respect others, as we respect you, as a bishop of Church of Jesus Christ.

Forgive and bless me a sinner.

Господе Исусе Христе, Сине Божији, помилуј ме грешног.

This is absurd...

I propose that this thread be ended or at least frozen until the apodosis of the Dormition.

As far as we know, bishop Photios doesn't have any profile in Euphrosynos Cafe using a nickname! Neither him nor any other bishop of the Holy Synod has expressed their opinion on the Serbian matter until a formal Synodal statement comes out. Besides Bp Photios has his own profile on Facebook and his own personal website using his real name and expressing his opinion openly in his articles without hiding as other known bishops do in this forum. Maybe br. Sava has to make clear his identity, who he is..although it's not obligatory.

Well, mr. ''Moscow.. e.t.c.''. I inform you that I am neither a bishop nor even a deacon but just a layman and of course I express my personal opinion since I do not live in a soviet regime. I remind you that the point of this discussion is fr. Akakios ordination as a bishop and it's canonicity!

MoscowIs3rdRome will stop making ridiculous ad hominem attacks or he will be banned from here. I am going to follow Leonidas' suggestion and close this thread.
