![]() When I choose to write an article, I expect to write in a professional and impersonal voice. But the regular expectations change a bit when I respond to an incompetent fraudster’s article. This is just one response. The once cogent Orthodox Christian Laity (OCL) has lost its standing in the community. The constant duplicity of republishing of the fanciful “works” of less than reputable authors like Nick Stamatakis proves this. In the OCL’s June 8th article “NEW MISSTEPS BY A CONFUSED ELPIDOPHOROS” goes too far. Literally every line in the editorial is either an outright lie, or hyperbole. Let’s examine his six-paragraph harangue prominently posted on OCL’s frontpage section “Governance and Unity.” “True dialogue is a gift from God to humankind”
-His All Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew In this day and age there exist considerable animosity and disinformation from within our Orthodox community. A series of blatantly sanctimonious reactions to a local Archon sponsored Symposium 'Reviving the Female Diaconate in the Orthodox Church: Has the Time Come?' (Saturday, March 30, 2019) have hit the world wide web, with a vengeance. |
