This is one of the many comments under that article. I second it: When will the Orthodox Bishops in America and Canada finally speak out against this unjustified tyranny directed at Christians specifically and denounce the persecution of the Orthodox Church? WHEN?

Our courageous Protestant brethren are putting our bishops to shame. Many Christian pastors have publicly spoken out against this travesty, are challenging these unconstitutional mandates, and are fighting to defend their Christian faith and the right to freely worship Christ.

Meanwhile we hear crickets from the Orthodox hierarchy. Their silence is deafening.

Your graces, do your jobs and fulfill your sacred duties. Defend your flocks and the Holy Orthodox Church!

“Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.” ~ Dietrich Bonhoeffer

I don’t blame you. Constantinople has been co-opted for a VERY long time, at least since Meletios Metaxis. The current occupant, Bartholomeios, was educated in Rome (what does THAT tell you?) and there are persistent rumors that C-ple gets funds from the US State Dept and the Clowns In America in addition to quiet subsidies from the papacy, all of which would account for C-Ple’s neo-papal claims since Meletios. Further I dare not say, except to note that I never commemorated the occupants of C-ple after Meletios to the present.

Kiril, as I recall, delivered a rather blistering sermon at the reconstructed Christ the Saviour Cathedral in Moscow a few years ago precisely on the feast of St. Mark of Eph. From the looks of things, you may be right.
