@JimJatras One of the miracles attributed to him was a baby born without a heartbeat who after an hour came to life. The reason he's not canonized is b/c he spoke out against communism and he said there would be a false church from Satan that will ape the Catholic Church and fool us

@OrthodoxReflec1 @roddreher @JosephSciambra But was that true or just a polemical retort. As I recall Savonarola was very hostile to p00fery but not as far as I know was that directed significantly against clergy. Maybe I'm wrong.

@StashPrada @Elliot_023 @Burnera94522485 @missingiguana @PCatholica @FiatLuxGenesis @RisingVendee I'm confused. What's relevance here of Francis of Assisi? He's saint in RCC, not in OC. Some Orthodox have high regard for him, some don't. BTW many Orthodox have a lot of respect for other RCC figures. Savonarola and Fulton Sheen come to mind.

@KyraDeal @StashPrada @Elliot_023 @Burnera94522485 @missingiguana @PCatholica @FiatLuxGenesis @RisingVendee Neither Savonarola nor Sheen was Orthodox. But one can still admire someone's character & efforts to promote truth & virtue according to the light they'd been given. I'd say the same about Lutheran pastor Richard Wurmbrand, a heroic witness for Christ in communist Romania.

@inDeosperavi @NinaByzantina That said, Savonarola was a great man.

A novelty introduced into fundamental Trinitarian theology eventually has tragic and unanticipated consequences.

@FiatLuxGenesis Many Orthodox have high respect for non-Orthodox who nonetheless displayed a true love of Christ & simple, sincere Christianity. C.S. Lewis & Savonarola come readily to mind. So does Fulton Sheen. May his memory be eternal!

@realDaveReilly It's notable that the Orthodox saint Maximos the Greek for a while lived in Italy & was a disciple of Savonarola.

@jon_delorraine Is it justice? It's a "rare whole-life" [?] sentence, but she can be out in 30 years. (Why do I suspect it'll be less than that....?) https://t.co/25dGjgxogK

Instead of lame Hitler memes, real icons and political heroes are people like King-Saint Stephen of Serbia who fought Islam or St Czar Nicholas killed by Bolsheviks

@PrecisionApolo 1. Orthodox allow 2 divorces and 3 remarriages (this promotes divorce) Divorce is allowed in Scripture by Christ. It is regrettable. The following marriages are served as a penitential service. The Orthodox allow for these as needed for salvation of people. If

@realMaalouf It's an indicator of conquest: "It's OUR country now, kaffir. Any objections, you wusses? No? I thought not!" OTOH, according to Rome, we all worship the same God. So what's the biggie?

For those who've been insisting that Russia's declining to hit regime assets in Kiev was purely military, we now have confirmation that it was, at least in part, restraint motivated by hope for a "deal." The question now is: will that really change? Note the following from
