Does this meme from an "Old Catholic" bishop fit your faith?

Yes I looked up Old Catholics and he seems to be different than others that go back to the Counsel of Trent etc.


While he uses the Nicene Creed without the Philioque, and only looks to the original 7 Ecumenical counsels. He says he sees himself as "Western Orthodox".

Then he should join the Orthodox Catholic Church.

looked that up. Wow was not expecting the Syriac Orthodox Church to have a hand in creating that!

But found a problem looking at the Wikipedia listing...

"The OCCA, part of the worldwide Orthodox Catholic Church founded by our Lord Jesus Christ and spread throughout the world by His holy apostles and their successors, exists in many countries and accepts both men and women, married and unmarried, as candidates for ordination to all three orders of the apostolic ministry (deacons, priests, and bishops). The OCCA (not a specifically “gay church” but which has many LGBTI people active in all capacities - OCCA welcomes people on the basis of love, not category) ordains openly lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender persons as clergy and blesses their unions as it does those of heterosexual couples. Access to the seven sacraments is offered to all individuals regardless of sex, gender identity, or sexual orientation. The OCCA has two monastic (religious) communities. Monasticism within the jurisdiction takes either a Western, Eastern or Oriental form just as the liturgical identity of the church as a whole represents itself."


That ai'nt gonna fly... Is there another Orthodox Catholic Church? If so, looks like it is tiny since it is obviously buried in the algorithm.
