Nektarios,

Welcome Back!

I think if that policy ever existed, has been changed because alot of the Antiochian Priest are going back to the more "traditional priestly look" even our bishop is like this.

Your mother bakes you a great big chocolate cake and serves it to you. But just when you are about to take a big bite, your little sister (or whom ever) informs you that your mother baked a terd in it. You of course give it back to your mother and refuse to eat it. But if she then dresses it up with more frosting and adds a few more sprinkles will you eat it then? Would you try to even take the smallest piece that didn't look compromised and eat it?

So what good is it that a priest dresses this way or that way when the fundementals are corrupt? What part of this can really be good?

I am sure there are some Uniate "priests" who have longer beards and more traditional icons than my Synod - but who is going to say, "Uniatism stinks", or rather, communion with heresy stinks "get over it"?

How about saying, a terd in a cake stinks "get over it"? How come we know whats good to eat and pleasing to our stomach but we don't see what is profitable spiritually? Perhaps it is to easy to "get over it" when it comes to spiritual things in the life (something we are all guilty of).

Big words for someone who has been Orthodox for a whole 2 days.

On a lighter note, WELCOME BACK OOD! :)

OOD is right; my soon to be former Uniate priest has a beard, riassa, wears a chotki, does monastic liturgies, took out the pews, etc etc etc...but he is still a papalist (I mean that in a narrow sense; he really does go hog wild trying to defend the papacy).

Please note that I do not subscribe to "Old Calendar Ecumenism" and believe that only the Synod of Archbishop Kallinikos is the canonical GOC of Greece. I do believe, however, that we can break down barriers and misunderstandings through prayer and discussion on forums such as this one.

Natasha,

Thank you.

btw, Anastasios is only agreeing with me because I am a moderator now. ;)

Anastasios, since I read in your last message that you are taking another step toward Orthodoxy, that is, you are leaving the Uniates, I will say Chronia Polla for this week!
