So I'm watching that Orthodox Christmas service.

Interesting thing to watch

it's pretty cool

You know.. it's said Russia is secular... This dosen't look secular 😛

Its "secular" enough to not scare the globalists too much

otherwise its one of the closer nations we have to the old european understanding of the relationship between Church and State

I have noticed, that.. Like Mosques it seems the Orthodox Church is expanding

I think a Cathedral was finished being built a year back.

Down the road, actually.

And there's that new on in France to.

one*

I guess if Catholcism and Protestantism becomes incompetant enough, it's easy for conversion from them to orthodox. Protestantism lost its mysticism

Protestantism is collapsing in on itself except for the Evangelicals

protestantism > catholicism

Catholicism actually has the means for self revival given some very strong bishops we have

orthodox > everything else

imho

Protestantism is a religion of civilians

i have respect for lutherans

Luther was a unwashed peasant

I really dont

Methodists have cucked up horrendiously.

the protestants broke off out of hubris and arrogance after the attempt at reconciliation after the Counter-Reformation and continued to fracture and fuck up Europe for centuries

Yeah fuck protestants

the great schism was bad enough

My point is that Orthodoxy is like Catholcism with a central church and an organized high priesthood...

But they are like Protestantism as they /do/ have autonomy.

yeah

you mean the autocephely?

Luther was simply a lower caste man who just couldn't observe the protocol and the sacredness of the ritual

And wanted to boil everything down to his plebeian views and tastes

Namely, to democraticize and profane the religion

And from then on its just worse and worse

I guess, yeah, the Autoclephaly

You have that philosemitic bolshevik called Cromwell

And his gang of men funded by the Jews to overthrow monarchy and impose their pluralistic order

Against wishes of majority of Englishmen

As an Irishman, the idea that Cromwell was funded by Jews is news to me

do you have a sauce?

Yes, I do have ketchup, want some?

And as a top of the cake, the liberal, progressive, feminine, sensual cults of Quakerism, Calvinims and so on
