That one picture is sad, World Orthodox praying with both a Non-Chalcedonian and a Roman Catholic 
. That shouldn't be happening.

"Praying With heretics..."
Well, these people were in attendance, not vested, and observers...They weren't "praying with heretics."

I suppose they were officially invited... This is ecumenism.

The traditionnal ecumenist argument : we are witnessing....bababababbababa.... Did the apostles invite heterodox to witness their services like spectators? Aren't the unbaptized, heretics and catheculens to depart before the fathful's liturgy? The only way to witness is simply the mission...
They are treatin Orthodox services like shows.... Bababababa

Unprecedented...
It would seem new standards and scorn multiply when there is a bias to justify. "Come and see" has always been the Orthodox way. How is it the emissaries of St. Vladimir were allowed to see the glorifies of "heaven on earth." Somehow the unprecedented is advanced here...mission without witness in aa ekklesia without welcome and a Eucharist without love all in the name of "Holy Tradition"...merzost' zapustenie.
