We need to exit the Union
There are many nations under Union occupation
The South/Dixie
The Pacific Northwest/Cascadia
The North aka Vinland
Has anyone read The Disunited States of America by Henry Turtledove?
It’s a fascinating book where the US never became a united country and each state became its own nation with vastly different cultures some of which would constantly eat with one another.
*war not eat
America is the result of an oligarchal secession lead by Freemasons and funded by the French.
@Byzas Latin’s still used in the western orthodox rite afaik
Indeed!
It’s a beautiful language. Liturgical languages are in general.
I agree
I almost converted via Western rite bit there was a Byzantine church a bit closer to home
Same, but I found a russian Orthodox Church that did the Liturgy in English and Slavonic that was much closer and I enjoy it.
My parish uses a little bit of Slavonic, mostly English though
serbs
I’m gonna visit the western Orthodox Church some day. I’m also considering joining one near the college I’ll be attending.
The one near me is actually still a mission, liturgy is in a room in the priest's house. Nineteen years and they haven't had the funds to build a church because they've always had a small congregation
There's an ortho place up the road from my parish, think it mainly does greek, but there are also some slavonic services.
That's interesting. Do you know what jurisdiction it is?
The Greek parish nearest me does the singing mixed in Greek and English but the creed, the Our Father, etc, are done in 3-4 different languages
@Based Chav It might be carpatho-russian or OCA
One of my parishes is Carpatho-ruthenian
Kyle you're right retarded ahahahah
Epic bait
Anyone want to learn to lead inductive Bible studies to be able to do this kind of thing?
Inductive bible study?
Trying to inspire virtue in a "Cool Wine Aunt"-esque receptionist is like beating your fists against a brick wall.
Also, would any of you have any good counter arguments for "Muh religion causes all wars"?
Literally any war in history
Because actually none of them were specifically caused by religion
Religion may shave been a part of the war but it was never the reason it started
@Based Chav "Just because religion might have been used as a justification or motivator by leaders and those in power doesn't mean it was the actual cause of war. Almost every war in history has been over the same things- power and resources. Using religion as a cover for the need for power and resources doesn't mean religion was the cause- just an easy justification and motivator to get people to fight for their leader/tribe's power and resources."
You went to that church?
It was shut :(
But we looked round it
A locked church is a great disappointment.
It was 9:45am
