Brother Nathanael must be stopped

[Not David]

He has been active on Twitter/X just involved in politics and with some controversial figures (isn't he a monk?) and he posted a tweet calling out "miscegenation"/mixed-race marriage because Candace Owens is married and has children with a white man.

Doesn't he have an abbot/bishop to be reported to? He is making Orthodoxy look bad.

I’m not orthodox but I saw his videos back when they were on YouTube.

Interesting person, to put it a kind way.

Is he a member of an actual monastery?

I can’t seem to get an answer on that one.

Has he crossed the Rubicon of racism? I've always been more or less neutral on him. But even a good Christian monk is entitled to be a little crazy.

Yes, he said:
"Miscegenation, mixed-race marriages, racial blurring is a goal of Jewry to genocide the White race. If Whites continue in the direction of miscegenation then apocalypse is sure to come. My historic role is to promote White Christian youth to lead a White Christian Collective."

I'm not sure. Once he shared a post that he was in good standing with ROCOR but then I saw an interview that he used to be part of the Greek Old Calendarists who are not in communion with us.

Just by reading his X post (X is a toxic cesspool), this guy sounds like a racist/supremacist. Jesus will spit this Nathanael guy out on Judgement Day, if this priest does not repent. We should send this guy to the Middle East or some other area with brown folks, and see how many days he can survive there. Nathanael is promoting 1940s bigotry in 2024. For that, he should go to prison and be stripped of his priesthood. We should rebuke this evil priest in front of every Christian in his church according to 1 Timothy 5:20.

Galatians 3:28 (NIV): There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

Oh, that's very interesting. I thought he posted a note from a priest that stated he was in good standing as a communicant with the ROCOR. Weird.

the guy is mentally not well. he usually gets like this when he is off his meds.

"Used to" could be the distant past. After all, the ROCOR used to dally with Greek Old Calendarists as well.

We should pray for him, that God can help him, and that he reads and takes to heart Galatians 3:28.

While I am not a fan of him, I think we need to be careful not to decide what God's judgement is. We have no idea the state of his soul. We all struggle with something. Probably be more beneficial to pray for him and his salvation just like anyone else and let God worry about him. I've done and said far worse things than him, just less people know about it and I thank God for that.

Yeah, I totally agree with you. I prayed for him last night actually, that he repents of his sins, cos I am worried for him.

He is not Orthodox. While he may have been "in good standing" with ROCOR at point point in time, I do believe that he was eventually excommunicated.

 

[SamanthaAnastasia]

Any negative race mixing stuff always makes me feel horrible about myself. I’m a product of a mixed marriage (and my father as well and his father). Inbreeding is not healthy!

Alright guys, I am leaving this thread, cos no one is calling out the blatant racism of this priest.

Father, if I may ask, how do you know he takes meds?

You’re right, though.

Thanks for the info.

According to one website I found, he was a novice at an Old Calendarist monastery in Colorado, but never took vows. He was NEVER a monk and is not in good standing. Apparently.

because one of the times he did his anti-Semitic nonsense, ROCOR excommunicated him and he said he was only brought back after he repented and took his medication.
