Buzuxi, I really find it hard to accept two bickering gruops who have anethematized each other, and in the processes have proclaimed each other to be "a schismatic, graceless sect". Have you read the awful things thar Kiousis has said about Orthodox hierarchs and aven other old-calendarist groups? and what about his support to the monks of Esphigmenou?
This guy is evil with a capital "E" - really Evil... now Koutsoumbas... well, he's just a show-off who thinks that he, one day, will unify all the old-calendarist groups under his "omophorion"... perhaps one day he will create a parallel "Ecumenical Patriarchate" of his own. Pfff...
Now, don't get me wrong - I'm not an "ecumenist". Far from it!! I really think that our time to leave the WCC is long past and I'd love to see and end to all these pseudo-ecumenical dialogues with non-chalcedonians and other heterodox groups, for instance. However, I fully reject the old-calendarist arrogance, self-righteousness and sectarianism, which have lead them astray and took them out of the pleroma of the Church.
In XC,
Rick

Agreed.  No debating for me.

I think that is what will happen, after they're done "collecting" them!

When communion is broken between two groups of Christians, it isn't always just one side that is at fault. If the ecumenical involvement of the canonical Orthodox Churches were to end, I wonder how many Old Calendarists would return to the Church. |
