There is a clarity that comes with realizing every single one of these people are vociferous liars, absolutely slathering at the mouth to be as dishonest as possible. You have to assume that anything out of their mouths is a lie.

@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

May God rest her soul in Paradise. Everyone, please remove “organ donor” status from your ID if you haven’t yet. Protect yourself from vultures.
NEW: Hundreds of high school students line the hallways of an Alabama hospital to say goodbye to their classmate as she heads into surgery to become an organ donor. 18-year-old Kimber Mills was shot at a party over the weekend. Mills was shot in the leg and head, allegedly by

“She asked for prayers for her recently reposed loved one, I’m going to use it as a chance to argue and try to get a dunk on her” You are a sick and shameful person.
@syd_bee3 If she’s dead, your prayers won’t do anything for her. Who the heck do you think you are? God?

>Rachmaninov not on this list
They are inserting nonwhites into the history of Whites precisely to negate the reality that Whites are responsible for about 97% of everything great in history --- the most inconvenient fact of human history, which contradicts the ideology of diversity. ALL the greatest

Go read how Saint Cyril addresses Nestorius (an actual heretic, not just someone who has some un-based opinions) if you want to be keyed in. And don’t get dragged through the “disrespecting the office of the episcopacy” toll house for 40 days after you die please

Feel like I’m going to flip out the next time I see someone refer to the Ecumenical Patriarch as “Bart” or some other irreverent flippant way. You can disagree with him as much as you want (I do too!) but if you have no respect for his office you don’t have the mind of the Church

This is only even an applicable question to North/South Americans and Northwestern Euros. Jurisdictional plurality is messy and unfortunate and, God willing, will be resolved in time through prayer and the labor of love.

“Which church bro” I have a hard time believing that anyone making this argument is doing so honestly, but I hope you are. You join a parish that is part of the canonical Body of Christ. You can go Georgian, Serbian, ROCOR, GOARCH, whichever. Whatever’s closest to you.
@Numaddib Which one? Georgian Old Calendarist or Serbian? Or should they go for ROCOR or GOARCH? No one knows. This is why Western Orthodoxy is best, whose Bishop is in Rome, where Christ sent Peter.

Into the splendour of Thy Saints how shall I, the unworthy one, enter? For should I dare to enter the bridal chamber, my vesture doth betray me, for it is not a wedding garment; and as one bound, I shall be cast out by the Angels.
