CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

that’s a recent development, and if you knew about Orthodoxy, has nothing to do with us. Orthodoxy is very connected to 1st century Israel, especially looking at how often we use typology.

it’s because of who St Nektarios is. it’d be foolish not to talk about Orthodoxy when talking about him, especially a movie about his life.

no, it was an Orthodox one. it certainly wasn’t a universal one, since there are many Christians who deny what he thought and believed, especially towards the end.

Putting the will of God before our own and loving others as self is rather universal in Christianity. Thing is the majority don't follow it. They are to busy looking for easy ways of salvation.

not the way that St Nektarios lived it, which is unique to Orthodoxy.
