Perhaps he has repented.  Wink

In other news, Fr. Andrew really likes airports, or so it would seem.

Prophetic dreams... We all know how entertaining those can be, for all the wrong reasons.

What's everyone bashing him for? Sure he believed things were stupid and his comments appear odd and silly at times, but he is in the process of coming home. You should remember the parable of the lost coin. This man has repented and is coming to the truth. You should be happy for him and welcome your new brother instead of staying stuck-up and arrogant with this stupid cliche system that is so prevalent in ethnic Orthodox Churches. I'm a Protestant convert and to be honest, maybe it is your rudeness that keeps so many people from converting to Orthodoxy.

We cannot legislate morality by passing laws controlling firearms. The only evil we can combat lies within our hearts.

We need stronger laws to protect the moral foundation of society against the evil of gay marriage.

To tell you the truth i'm just jealous: I've been Orthodox for a bit longer than this guy and AFR hasn't contacted me for an interview yet.

This topic was split from the original topic and is locked as it has strayed to the area of politics and is in violation of the Convert Issues Forum Purpose (see above).
