"ROAC is the creation of former ROCOR bishop Valentine of Suzdal, who's been convicted of molesting young men in Russia. He has with him as co-bishops the former ROCOR hieromonk Anthony Grabbe, who stole millions of dollars from our mission in Jerusalem before being defrocked and who participated in the events which ended in Met. Vitaly living in Montreal, and the former ROCOR hieromonk Gregory Abu-Asali a jurisdiction-hopper."
From what I've read on the subject, this sounds like hearsay/slander. What is a fact, is that the MP uses thugs and the secular (former Soviet) government officials to actively persecute the ROAC; what is a fact is that ROAC has had Churches burned down, etc., etc.
It seems to me that the one thing always missing from these sort of anti-ROAC attacks, is an apologetic - detailing precisely why they are mistaken. It seems like the detractions come easier to these folks than actually having to say why their doctrinal positions are mistaken.
