Well, I wasn’t referring to this situation in particular. Both patriarchates are canonical, so it isn’t to the level of the Ukrainian schismatic Churches. I meant that there were certainly families that were fully Orthodox, who happened to be a part of the Ukrainian Churches that were split off from the canonical Orthodox Church. It’s sad that they experience the consequences of what happened with leadership. Certainly some likely supported both sides, but some were just Orthodox faithful beforehand.Cause his holiness Patriarch Bartholomew is now in schism right? This is the most objective take on this as the MP enjoys great support in the church?
It’s somewhat different than what happened with heresies of the past. If a person teaches heresy and others consciously join that person and affirm that heresy...that’s a different situation.
I can’t speak to what will happen in the future. As of now, however, the situation is the same as Antioch and Jerusalem- on a bigger scale of impact, since it is the EP and the Russian Church.
