This is fake news. It's to stir things up. Ridiculous.

Fine, hate HAH if you want (I mean the authors). But ACTUALLY QUOTE HIM.

Ridiculous.

Fake.
Forgive me. I just ran across here on CF and was surprised.

Is there info about what was actually said?

Quite frankly - IF a patriarch were to suddenly simply announce we were in communion with Rome (to answer someone's question - a very great deal would need to be discussed and frankly, Orthodoxy is not going to compromise or change) ...

But if some part of the Church simply did it ... the rest wouldn't just follow. It can't happen that way.

Sorry, Anastasia, I did not mean you. Sorry for my hasty second reply.

Presumably, whatever was actually said was totally unobjectionable...or else it would be quoted with a source, rather than a transparent lie being offered up with the lame excuse that security prevented recording these astounding remarks.

What we can learn from this is that someone, somewhere, wants people to think HAH is a schismatic heretic...but his words and actions don't support that idea...so they have to make stuff up.

I do apologize to you, Anastasia. I should not have let my blood boil like that.

A rerun of the council of Florence is that's what's going to happen now?
No. It's fake news.

The article that this article links to words it's excuse differently:

"According to the eyewitnesses, numerous patriarchal guards did not allow anyone from the brethren to record the speech of Patriarch Bartholomew."

What a coincidence...

It seems like no one really knows whether this is true or not.
This just in: CF purchased by Elvis as wedding gift for three-headed squirrel! Sound impossible? It was just announced at a press conference. But no recordings were permitted.

Prohibiting recordings while speaking would be a very intelligent thing for any religious figure to do, at least at certain times.

The EP seems to want to drive the Church under the Roman Pope to be just another neglected group of Eastern Catholics.

As an ex-Roman Catholic myself, the Orthodox Church is far better off being Orthodox, and not under Rome. If Rome were to come home, that'd be a different story.
