În orthodox majority countries, EO seem to be overly anti clannish. Even when working as immigrants they behave as they would be in different clans.

I need literal quotes on this. I am listening to all these pastoral letters and I probably forgot the passages.

Rom O C as a structure was not involved in elections. Individual clergy or extremely few bishops, based on their convictions and sympathies, against the ruling of the Holy Synod, allowed or made campaign for candidates or parties. This is outrageous and so wrong.

"Did they condemn the Russian Church for the Ruskii Mir?" Not officially. Our Patriarch proposed, in Crete synod, that all orthodox patriarchs to meet in periodic synods or synaxis, to discuss all things relevant to the Orthodox world. Since then things got worse.

The Romanian society is torn over corruption, lack of transparency, fear of war, poverty, insecurity, distrust in the "system", and have now turned towards a hypnotic charlatan populist with religious language. Things are tense. Pray for us.

The Romanian Orthodox Church condemned the war in Ukraine. Some of its hierarchs, a minority, have sympathy for an "orthodox caliphate" that people like Putin can provide. They are a minority, in fact only 1 has made public praise of Putin in one or two occasions.

I am open for clarifications, if somebody wants to know some truth. /5

The apparently-religious-orthodox candidate who used a religious language to get votes showed up almost from anywhere, he was so low on polls nobody considered him seriously. His campaign took almost hypnotic turns on TikTok and moved undecided voters to vote for him.

RomOC remains in its majority neutral. It does not take sides. Some of its official reps do so, but is not a rule, is an exception. /3

Some, a minority, have open sympathy for a shady man who uses religious words. The election result is NOT a result of the involvement of the RomOC, but of people having various concerns and having been exposed to carefully crafted clips on TikTok. /2

Waaait a bit. Romanian orthodox here, aware of the elections and Orthodox church "involvement". Kris, please inform yourself better from sources. Orthodox Church in Romania recommends to its priests and monastics to not make known their political option. /1

There is equivalence in the atrocities performed.

Why do you say China?

How will a man fix his weakness in the absence of a woman? Because a strong man must protect the purity of women! He will not touch an untouched woman, and will not touch a touched one.

Such men are build in the friction of a relationship. They are rarely born that way. All these lessons are learned the hard way in 10-20 years of relationship. Men will settle into their duties, and women will settle into their energy and feminine side - but this will take years.

Oamenii găsesc biserica plictisitoare pentru că așteaptă același excitement pe care îl dă un concert. Ori la biserică nu vii ca la concert pentru acea o doză de plăcere pe care o primești. La biserică vii cu oarecare renunțare și smerenie inclusiv a ascultării aceleiași slujbe
