“[Cardinal O’Malley], The time has come for Christianity to celebrate Easter on the same day.
I don’t need to welcome you here, because this is your Cathedral as well; the people recognize in you a man of God, & a leader of our church.”

Definitely looking forward to Holy Week.
There’s enough of Christ’s actual words admonishing the Pharisees for a whole year.
Don’t believe the hype of the Orthobros.
Rigidity, exclusion, hatred, misogyny, and every form of bigotry is not “tough love”

There are many who do not agree with this, and their point of view must be heard. Dialogue must continue….and without a doubt, a new chapter of the Orthodox Church Has (re)opened today.
Now we must pray, together, for God to enlighten us as to the way forward.

Holy Week is about to begin and look at what this spiritual man posts. All I hear him screaming is: “Let him be crucified.”
That sounds familiar! Orthobros don’t give anything refreshing or nourishing before the most important time of the year — just vinegar mixed with gall.

Absolutely. And the thought that we cannot engage with, pray with, or participate in the activities of other denominations and religions is just wrong.
His All-Holiness: "We must also take proactive measures to prevent the emergence" of religious fundamentalism. "To this end, we must recognize that there is nothing to divide us from our brothers and sisters of other denominations or religions."

There was nothing peaceful about the Invasion of Cyprus. Thousands died, thousands were pushed into refugee camps for months, and a severing nation was INVADED AND OCCUPIED.

Mt Athos re fake news: “We did not say he is unwelcome, as is wrongly circulated. We accept all people. Could we then ban the entry of a Hierarch, especially the Archbishop of America? We simply expressed our concern but in no way did we ask the Patriarch to tell him not to come"

Here’s what’s crazy about the Orthobros and the article of Met. Sabas: It has them flabbergasted
Usually they attack en masse, trying to “ratio” and spew their hatred-disguised-as-piety. But here, they are silent.
I bet their “secret” discord channel is on fire right now.
