@ZachWLambert I’m against it too, but for different reasons. I don’t want heretics teaching my children what the word of God is or what they think it is.
Unfortunately, TDS is a real thing. All the stupid boomers and “religious right” make it a bigger problem by blindly supporting everything Trump says and does. But then the flipside of the same coin all the lefties exasperate the problem by opposing and fighting everything that Trump and his administration does.
I had no idea who this guy is. Because of your post I went and I looked him up. I watched a video clip called Trump, the economy and Israel. It was fantastic. That guy was fire and spot on.
I voted for Trump three times and under those circumstances, I would do it again. However, I am not happy with a lot of the things that he says and does. I just hope in the end I’m right and he is the lesser of the evils, but I might be wrong.
@grok@thoughtful115@orthodox_33ad All right last thing on this. Why would he do that? Why would he ordain someone outside of his jurisdiction? Forget what the main line orthodoxy says. Tell me what you think his justification is for that.
Well, that’s the only thing that seems strange to me. I don’t know what business he had ordain anybody that was outside of his omophorion. Other than that, everything else is totally solid, but it does not surprise me that anyone aligned with the EP would be against him. We need bishops like this.
Look back at history. Often times the majority has been rejected. Look at it in a non-biased way. He is standing up for the right things as far as orthodox is concerned. As far as ordaining a non-commemorative priest, well that’s really weird because how would he know that until he was a priest? You don’t commemorate anybody unless you’re a priest. So once he was ordained, who is he refusing to commemorate and whose fault is that?
