I need a based Orthodox priest with a long beard and a missing eye.
I'll call him Odin, he'll say "What?" "Nothing father"
Convert or else....

Amazing for morale, I'm sure.
Orthodoxy or Death aint jut a catchy phrase. lol

Where are those folk from?
Those are the Union of Orthodox Banner Bearers, Russians
i know some of them, super cool dudes
BASTE
Honestly, I have no idea how modern day "Christianity" will survive with churches like that ^^^
I imagine it'll fizzle into nothingness soon enough.
thats my hope
id rather have 1% of the current "Christians" if they were all hardcore, instead of what we have today
How do actual Orthodox folk in Europe and Russia feel about Americans joining the church?
usually confused, then happy
Hahaha I'd imagine so.
they hate hipster faggots converting because its "exotic"
which is a big problem
ethnic parishes usually just mind their own business
and some now are filled with loser ameridox doofuses
but the thing is, Orthodoxy as a worldview and a religion, cant be even injured by those who dont actually practice the Faith
its literally basically impossible for doctrine to be changed, due to the Church Council System
Some bishops in America might be fucking lame, but they cant change the Faith
Interesting.
yeah we havent had a church council to clarify or change dogma in like 1200 years
The bible hasn't said anything new in a very long time. That was part of my issue years ago.
well the funny thing is, the bible is just a publication of the Church
We compiled it at the Council of Nicea
Sure
It was never supposed to be a stand alone document
its to be read and understood WITHIN the church
so without the church to ground you, youre just barreling off into the wilderness
