Enemies of the Cross acting up in Romania

This is a response to the many lies and distortions related to the tragic death of a possessed young woman in a Romanian Monastery.
Like in Greece and Jerusalem, the haters of the Church try to exploit a misfortune to their aim of destructing the Orthodox Church.

orthodox, thank you for that information. The media always tries to sensationalize things for ratings. There are ALWAYS two sides to every story and they are often different.

Well DUH! They wouldn't BE the OTHER SIDE of the story if they weren't DIFFERENT, now would they?

Can you be more specific? I didn't understand to what you point.

It seems that Thomas likes to mock people or belittle them over insignificant things or things he does not understand as a way to make himself feel superior. It is really unChristian to constantly look for ways to attack people and I would ask Thomas to attempt to act more Christian when posting at an Orthodox Christian forum. Belittling one another or making personal attacks is not acceptable.

Saying "there are two sides to every story" isn't a stunning rebuttal. There are, after all, two sides as to whether Jesus rose from the dead.

And now people are seizing upon a third (at least) hand account on some forum in excusing a heinous crime. I like to think I can behave myself better than Tom does, but I can understand his combination of impatience and disgust.
