Well, dear Maria, I will not respond to you completely now regarding this, but I promise to to do after Pascha. I only will say, it has a lot to do with the dialogue with GOC-K, and for his mistake, Bp. Germogen, after sincere repentance, was set under "epitimia" by the Synod for one year, after this he was retired.
People (some few clergymen and laymen) who are attacking our Bishops now and sowing confusion, are doing so, because they are against our strict ecclesiology, and they think the MP has grace, etc. Some of them are even name-worshipers etc, it is interesting that these people are ousiders to our church and come from Bp. Diomid, ROCOR-A and MP... all who believe that in the MP is grace-filled ...
