NFTU: GOC (Chrysostomos) will send Delegation to RTOC Sobor

[DavidS]

STOP FIGHTING ORTHODOXY! PEOPLE ARE SICK OF IT. GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER, LAY ASIDE YOUR PETTY DIFFERENCES AND UNITE. STOP BEING SO BULL HEADED AND EGOTISTICAL. ENOUGH ALREADY! THINK OF THE IRREPARABLE DAMAGE YOU ARE CAUSING THE FAITHFUL. THIS IS SICK. ORTHODOXY AND CHRISTIANITY IS NOT A POLITICAL THING. IT IS THE BODY OF CHRIST. IT'S TIMES THE BISHOPS START ACTING LIKE IT. THIS IS NOTHING BUT GREEK MEGALOMANIA AND THEIR PASSION OF BRINGING THEIR PRIDE INTO CHRISTIANITY. THE KIOUSIS SYNOD REPRESENTS TRUE ORTHODOXY. SATAN IS BEHIND ALL THESE LIES BECAUSE HE WANTS TO CONFUSE PEOPLE AND CAUSE THEM TO LEAVE THE CHURCH ALTOGETHER. STOP ACTING LIKE A BUNCH OF BABIES ANS SCANDALIZING PEOPLE. DO YOU CARE FOR UNITY OR FOR NUMBERS? THIS IS NOT A COMPETITION. STOP BEING SO WORLDLY AND CARNAL.[/b][/b][/b][/b][/size]

The Kiousite synod is a schism from the Auxentians who came into existence as the result of the 1960 uncanonical, anti GOC, ROCOR "consecration" of a renegade "Matthewite", Akakios Pappas (who was succeeded by Auxentios): one of the consecrators was a new calendarist: this demonstrates that even in 1960 ROCOR did not have the mind of the GOC on the ecclesial staus of new calendarists, who most certainly cannot make bishops for the GOC, whose ecclesiology declares new calendarists to be outside the Church.

Do you really believe that? They don't meet the criteria for schism. They are perfectly canonical. You people are sick. Tell me, where is the glorious and universal Bride of Christ that was commisioned to teach the nations? Is it comprised of one or two people hidden somewhere in a distant Island somewhere in Greece? You people give the devil too much credit. There is too much "flesh" and carnality among traditionalists. They cancel themselves out because of their enormous egotism and pride. Their bishops and lay people destory everything they touch. They are not capable of being Christian because they are too proud and feisty. They always have to be right. Traditionalism cancels itself out because their men destroyed Orthodoxy due to their pride. Bishops lie and twist events and the facts just to get more people. They slander people just to cover their own backs. These kind of people (monsters really) should never have even joined religion. They are not the right material. These men are corrupt and should never have been bishops. A bishop must be free of ambition and egotism. I'm out of here. I apologize for my sins.

For a TRUE history of the church of Greece and the birth of all the liars since 1924 onward, read THE STRUGGLE AGAINST ECUMENISM, by the Holy Orthodox Church in North America.

Really, if you met someone who wanted to convert to Orthodoxy, what would you tell them? Would you tell them they need to fly to some remote Island in Greece to go to church on Sunday? Do you really believe that is the legacy Christ left the world? You people are just plain nutts.

I'm out of here.

I apologize for my sins.

Dear DavidS,

All I hear from you is like a shotgun blast of scattered sentences screamed out against an imaginary enemy.

If you would like to discuss an issue how about trying one item at a time. Perhaps you could start with something with which you have first-hand experience?
